For those that are smart enough to understand, Decibels are on a logarithmic scale...

It has SC listed 3rd, but really we are tied for 2nd...

Also, if they measured LSU in the 4th quarter it would like be less than 100...

Do you want me to get into when you use A vs C weighting on noise dosimetry, or what states use different frequency ranges for audiometric testing?

pretty sure only one of those top 3 actually registered on the richter scale during the 2024 season - too -


Love the call, but the ESPN version is better.

Doesn't fricking count. We're talking about that shitty high school looking stadium your college team has to play in every Saturday.


Well considering Bama has been paying athletes for years I thought a professional stadium comparison would be appropriate.

In any event our great Stadium does a bit better than you think douchebag...here you go. Thank you AI...

Here are some examples of sounds along with their approximate decibel levels:

1. **Rustling Leaves**: 10 dB
2. **Whisper**: 30 dB
3. **Normal Conversation**: 60 dB
4. **Traffic Noise**: 70 dB
5. **Lawn Mower**: 90 dB
6. **Rock Concert**: 110 dB
7. **Jet Engine (takeoff)**: 130 dB
8. **Gunshot**: 140 dB
9. **Fireworks**: 150 dB
10. **Rocket Launch**: 180 dB

These levels can vary based on specific circumstances and environments.

I’m not sure where all the Tennessee hype has come from in recent years. When things are rocking, LSU, Auburn, and Florida have the three loudest stadiums and it’s not really close.

Tennessee and South Carolina are fourth and fifth. Then probably Bama and Georgia up next.

Granted I’ve never been to Texas A&M, Oklahoma, or Texas.

I’ve been to 5 games at Neyland… including 3 games against Auburn and one Bama-UT game and I’ve never felt that it was all that loud.

Definitely didn't expect husky stadium that high. The rest isn't surprising. Stadium design and depending on opponent helps too.

BS

LSU is not below Washington..that is insane..UF when Napier is not the head coach gets insanely loud..but recently it is hard to sell out games when you are pretty sure it will be painful as hell if it is a good opponent. Sorry I have been to USC home games....not even close too Tiger Stadium, Neylond, nor the Swamp...it literally holds 77k..the Swamp holds 10k more, LSU and Tenn both hold over 100k....that us over 20k more people making noise.


Plus no one considers USC a scary place to play. Tiger Staium(LSU and Clemson), the Swamp, Neyland, Jordan-Hare, Kyle field tip the odds much more.

So basically if you have the loudest stadium your odds of winning a natty are lost

Washington probably gets that loud because they have metal overhangs.

Swamp doesn't come close to williams brice. Ive been to both as well. It's honestly a myth how loud the swamp is. Very overrated environment.

It’s not overrated, they just have the most fair weather fans in college football for a historically great program. So once they’re good again it will be a top 5 loudest place to play.

I would put A&M against any of the other Stadiums in the SEC. By your own admission you haven't been there. I have, as well as in those stadiums you mention. A&M is extremely loud. Hell they were bursting my eardrums when they were beating us by 30 points in 100 degree heat....say what you want about their yell leaders but their crowd is loud!

There’s no way UW’s stadium is 2nd loudest. Its maximum capacity is 70,138 and one end zone isn’t closed in.

Never mind the fact it’s in Seattle and they don’t have real men …only trannies and soy boys.
