Florida-
2002. I was young but due to my sheer hate for UF, I remember it pretty well. The campus is like a shitty version of LSU's. The fans were horrible during and after the game. They got up in my mom and dad's face more than once after the game. We lost in OT because Carnell broke his leg. I was sad. Stadium was loud, but very very dirty. I hate Gainesville and that awful shade of blue.
Tennessee-
2004. I was still young. The campus doesn't feel like an SEC one at all; it felt like I was going to an NFL game. I remember the stadium being absolutely massive, and Rocky Top was stuck in my head for days. The people were as nice as could be. It was a top ten matchup, but we beat the breaks off of them so I remember it being eerily quiet most of the game. I wish I remembered more of the day; I would like to go back.
LSU-
2015. It was about 94 degrees all day, and seemed to get hotter the more our asses got kicked. The campus was pretty nice. The fans were nicer than expected, definitely not as bad as the ones that travel to AU. The biggest surprise was the stadium was absolute shite on the inside; seriously it looks like y'all haven't done renovations in decades. There was only one TV near our tunnel. It was in one of the concessions, and looked as if it had been bought in 1998. Also, it was not as loud as UF or AU, not even close, not a flame at all. I am baffled at how Death Valley got that reputation. It got above average loud on 3rd downs and LF's big runs. Great trip overall despite my negative comments. Luckily, I could drink my sorrows away in NOLA after.
UAT-
2016. TBA. Many crimson tears will be shed.

Up 14 after the first quarter, 24 at half and the game was never any closer than 17 points after the first 20 minutes.......
Do you really need an explanation of why it may not have gotten too rowdy?
