Ha. Y'all don't get nearly the same shite as UA. Not even close.

Aggies aren't really "loud." But that isn't the only way to judge a crowd or a stadium, or at least isn't the only way outside the state of Loudiana.
Our students are all doing the same cheer at the same time. It might seem lame to SEC fans that only use the crowd as a play disruptor, but we would kick arse in a English soccer league.

I was there when LSU played A&M in 2012. The stadium was not very loud at all. I thought it was just average compared to the rest of the SEC. Maybe that will change after their expansion.
It's was decently loud for the first few drives but it was cold, rainy and we beat their arse.

it was? thats weird, because I distinctly remember it being on a Saturday. Having been there for the game, my memory is probably not as good as to which day the game was on, as yours.
This is crazy.
Who knew Saturday, September 19th, 2009 was a Friday.
shite be whack.

No, we know we are the best. The only reason anyone disagrees is ignorance. The only student sections that come close are out of the SEC (like Nebraska).
UF has a 25K seat student section that also makes up one entire side of the stadium right behind the opposing bench, and given that we don't have tiers on the sidelines, it is just one huge continuous area. I recognize that A&M has a great student section, but I think it is misguided to just write off other schools you really don't know anything about.

You are correct, I would be just as wrong to write off others without information.
I will say 25k is ten thousand lower than what I would call impressive, but maybe yall have some badass yells to make up for it.
Soooooo, is the UF's student section all synchronized? Do they know about a dozen cheers that are practiced weekly and all of the 25k can chant together in unison on gameday? Does you student section have a cheer for almost any situation (bad call, hurt player, etc) that all of those 25k students do at once?
If so, you are correct, I am wrong to put us Aggies on top.

Was sunny hot and an early kickoff in College Station in 2012.

You'd have to be incredibly sensitive/arrogant to think A&M is some special case on here. Anything remotely positive about any school is going to get shite on by other fans on here.

25K makes it one of the largest in the country. Larger than Penn State, Nebraska, etc.
I think A&M has a great student section and it is very unique, but A&M fans seem to think this is a question with only one answer. Synchronized chants are great, but there are other ways to be effective. Yes, there are dozens of cheers and songs UF students are supposed to know, but more than anything from a pure noise disruption standpoint they are certainly among the best.

No you wouldn't. They don't need anyone to use nifty hand signals to start a song. Some people just start singing and everyone else joins in.

I don't recall our coaches having to address the student attendance or leaving early issue publicly in recent memory unlike some of our SEC brethren.

We're the most similar to hooligan firms out of all the teams in all of CFB.

Yet teams still come into College Station and can win not once, not twice, not three, but four times in a row. Your student section/ home field advantage is comparable to that of kU
Posted on 8/18/14 at 10:40 am to Gradual_Stroke
Maybe the closest, but you wouldn't come close to kicking arse. You would be ridiculed by the English just as you are by us for those yell leaders or whatever you call them.

Yells aren't why Kyle Field is loud. We don't do yells during the plays, everyone yells AAAAAAAAAAAAAAA or whatever else they want when we're on defense. That's when it's loud.
For example: LINK

Even the best has room for improvement.
I'm looking forward to our students stepping it up a notch.
