All of you are wrong. Its hard to get excited when you're beating the crap out of everyone. We don't get challenged very often. But we're as loud as TS when we play a good team. Ex LSU last year.

There are plenty of dominant programs with intimidating home atmospheres. For example, Florida has one of the best home-field advantages in CFB with the Swamp and nobody's had more success than them over the last 20 to 25 years. Getting amped up for opponents doesn't seem to be a problem for them.

Good point about being challenged. It also helps when you aren't as good and you have nothing to lose. The 2003 Oklahoma game at BDS was a good example. We had no business taking #1 ranked OU deep into the 4th quarter with a bad team that year. The atmosphere was incredible that night and almost willed us to a win. The crowd did the same thing in the first half of the 2010 Iron Bowl as well and the 2005 Florida game. Both were very loud games.
