Yeah it was such a crowd juggernaut adjustment you lil tiggers went 7-1 in only your 2nd season (back to back division champs in '13 and '14) and aggot went 6-2 in their 1st and won @ Bama. Let's pretend not to know things so we can advance a narrative.....



Let’s pretend like Missouri didn’t get smoked in both conference title games.

Or that Aggie failed to do anything again until 2020.

Regardless, people have a right to be speculative with Oklahoma dropping games to the likes of Kansas State or Iowa State every year. Then being blown off the field in post season games of significance. Or Texas not winning anything since 2009.

2012 and 2014 I believe. Mettenberger was the QB in the first one but I don’t remember who was y’alls QB in the second. Both close games but the LSU offense in the 2nd one was real bad.

By no means am I insulting Tiger Stadium, it was electric. I am just saying neither was the loudest game I have ever been to

Ok, now that you've started to slowly walk it back, what IS the loudest game you've been to?

That's not the point of this thread. Nor is what aggot did up until 2020.

When Iowa state is the 3rd biggest stadium in your conference you know you suck

I’m not walking anything back. I already told you Kyle field was louder for a game…I’d have to look at the scores to figure out which one it was. It was probably 20 years ago, I was young.

Yeah those games were electric, man. SVP and Russillo, two outsiders, said that atmosphere was the most electric in all of sports. I’ve been to Kyle field, and it was a great experience, but nowhere close to an LSU Bama game in Tiger Stadium. Either you weren’t at those games or you’re full of crap

You have a proud history of beating teams with 13 starters out that got shafted from the CFP? Yea wait until you play Ga at full strength.

It’s more than numbers. Texas plays it an open low stadium that doesn’t hold noise. Those deep SEC bowls just hold that noise and energy.

I said they were electric. Jesus, you’re going to make me look for a picture from this shite. I’ll find one

One of our friends from high school worked for the program and we could pick one game a year to come to for free. We got to go all over the facility, we watched the pre-game hype video 15 minutes before the players did, etc.

Talked to David Pollack after the game. Watched a bunch LSU fans try to faze aj mccarron during his post game espn interview. Calling his mom a prostitute and stuff, it was a good time.

Absolutely nothing to gain from making this up. I like LSU and hate A&M

You are going to learn to hate others. Teams will kick your arse repeatedly.

I don’t give a shite if you were there or not. I just find it hard to believe that someone could say Kyle Field had a better atmosphere than the 2012 LSU Bama game. It’s laughable.

What other games were louder? You seem to be crawfishing a bit. Just admit the atmospheres you face in the SEC will be way tougher than the Big 12

I didn't say it was a better atmosphere. I said Tiger Stadium was incredible and electric like 5x, get over it. I remember Kyle Field getting louder during a game, it was 1999. I was 11 years old

Also, Alabama/LSU wasn't even the craziest crowd I have seen at a game. For a tiny stadium, Jones in Lubbock was absolutely insane for the Texas game in 2008. I don't give a shite if you believe me or not.

Yes, SEC stadiums will be significantly louder & more difficult to play in than Big 12 stadiums.

homefield advantage is mostly myth.


agree with this.

we played in front of 102k in knoxville and probably 85k in T-Town.

Won both of them.

OP is living in the 90s with stadium capacity smack talk.

Alright, man. You are dodging my question. I asked what other games were louder and you said Kyle Field got louder once when you were 11 ?? , and Texas Tech was “absolutely insane” whatever that means. I’m calling you out on your original quote, which is BS.

You can’t definitively answer my question, which proves my point.

I've sat 3rd row at two Alabama/LSU games in Death Valley. I loved every minute of it, especially the tailgating, fans, & the food. Tiger Stadium was impressive & loud but they weren't even the loudest games I have been to. I think we will be alright

Arkansas will be very loud against us this year right until Bijan gets the first carry and runs for 50 yards and after that, the crowd won't help them.

Are you kidding me? I answered the question. Kyle Field in the 1999 Texas game was louder.

Texas Tech in 2008 was crazier.

We played at Kyle Field for how long without it being an issue? In fact we have a winning record AT Kyle. Also I haven't cared to look up attendance for the other shite schools in this conference, but Iowa State actually averaged like 58k per game in 2019 and Kentucky was only like 53k...
