Kyle Field is the steepest stadium in the conference in terms of angulation with ground level. Its actually pretty unsafe IMO, Ive tripped and almost fallen several times and olds have a lot of trouble getting up the steps.

The angle of seats really doesnt effect sound much and most older stadiums are concrete structures. Moreover, Tiger stadium wasnt "designed" for sound, it was built in poeces over decades like most college stadiums.

it wasn't designed for that purpose, never said it was, but the loudness is a bi-product of what they ended up with

the angle of the seats combined with what the structure is made of and the shape of said structure absolutely affects the sound. LSU is essentially a steep concrete bowl. Kyle, conversely, is a steel structure that is more rectangular in shape
