It's no different than any other big stadium in the SEC.

I'm excited about this game and can't wait to see how it turns out.

It's the truth.

Your boy disagrees, as well as most people who have been to a big game there.

FYI...Your post was sophomoric and contributed nothing to refute that TS is just another stadium. With a team that can't back up it's reputation.

You know this isn't true.
No, we aren't undefeated there, but its an incredible environment for big games. And not just LSU fans say that. It has earned it's reputation for being electric, unique, and LOUD.

How is McFadden my boy?
I've seen many LSU posters say the 2008 game vs Alabama was one of the loudest games they've been to. I was there. I've heard it be just as loud at BDS, Jordan Hare, BHG, Sanford, and Neyland.
I haven't been to Texas A&M yet, so I can't comment on how loud their stadium gets.

It's a great stadium. I actually got goosebumps when SVP uttered his soliloquy on his radio show after the Bama game in 2014. Heard it that Monday afternoon when he did it.
It's just not something that affects visiting teams as much as you folks like to think it does. Otherwise, your home record would be stellar and well beyond what other stadiums might boast from an advantage standpoint.

Sorry to disappoint.

Most of those must have been written before the 4th quarter.

It was just a joke, dude. As if this forum isn't sophomoric...
Tiger Stadium is just another stadium to Bama and they do own it (LSU does much better at Bryant-Denny where they are .500 all-time and gave Bama their worst loss there). The Bear did bitch about Tiger Stadium being the worst place for a visiting team to play because of the noise though (and I think that says a lot considering how many times he beat LSU's arse).
Tiger Stadium is not always great, but teams seem to get extra jacked up to play and try to win there. The quotes listed earlier were from other players/coaches, so it's not like it's just LSU fans pumping up their own stadium. Tiger Stadium isn't always great at all, but for really big games, it's tough to beat the atmosphere (though I think a number of the SEC stadiums have awesome atmospheres). I mean, the fans caused a mini earthquake to register on a seismograph for an extended period of time in 1987 against Auburn, so I wouldn't say it's just like any other stadium.
This guy was considered possibly the toughest and hardest hitting guy in NFL history and here is what he said about Tiger Stadium back in the day: "It's probably the only time in my life I was intimidated by the crowd. I haven't been in an event like that at any level of football. Out of all the games I've ever played in, I've never been in anything like that, and I am including my Super Bowls in that assessment." - NFL Hall of Famer and Super Bowl Champion, Ronnie Lott, on Tiger Stadium

1979.
And USC won 17-12.

Tiger stadium drew a line in the sand in 1992 against state and 1999 against arky that LSU will not have a winless season in the sec west conference record.
To bad Bryant Denny couldn't stop bama from having a winless season in the sec west conference record in 1993.

Ooh snap. You're going all probation/wins vacated on me, aren't you?

It made McCaron cry like a bitch when he squeaked out a victory because he knew he did something harder than winning a national championship.

Crying like a bitch as a winner =/= not winning at home

Please stop the smack talk. Come back after the game and you gloat or say good game, "Good game. Bama lost". Otherwise you are just a dick.

You are missing the point. He was scared for his life and knew how hard it was to win in that setting. I mean he just beat us in the National Championship months before why not cry then?
