Right. You don't even have to get past the top 3 to see this. #2 and #3?

The loudest single moment I’ve heard in tiger stadium was when we blocked that last second field goal against bama in saban’s return to tiger stadium in 08.
The loudest game overall was probably vs Florida in 2007. That was an absurd atmosphere from beginning to end.
When the AU kicker bounced what would have been the game winning FG attempt off the upright in the mid-2000s, that was insane.
I was in the student section and the noise actually hurt. My ears were ringing for a while after that one.

This guy has Michigan behind Indiana.
List is garbage.

As noted, lots of garbage on that list.
I have been blessed to be in every SEC stadium and many out of conference stadiums on that list for some truly remarkable moments. None of them will ever approach these two, listed in no particular order.
-Alabama visited Auburn for the first time ever on December 2, 1989. There was a religious fervor and a sustained sound on that day that I doubt can ever be duplicated. That was the time of paper shakers, and a dull blue/orange haze lingered over the field in the first half. I know folks that were there who were physically ill for a few days after because they just poured themselves into that day.
-Auburn at LSU on October 8, 1988...forever known as the Earthquake Game. There was a wall of sound for a moment that shook the stadium and the ground. It was deafening and disorienting and hurt the senses, as if a fleet of jumbo jets took off and barely cleared the stadium. Loudest single moment I ever experienced.

Can someone scientifically explain the correlation between loud and winning?

I have been in tiger stadium when it is so loud you can feel the concrete vibrating under your feet. There have been a few moments it has felt dangerous, like finding yourself caught up in unglued crowd/mob behavior.
If we would have returned it for a walkoff td (left side of field was wide open), I think there would have been a stadium collapse

I was at the top of the upper deck on probably the 25 yard line and it was even deafeningly loud up there. The noise, gasp, noise x50 in that sequence from pre kick to kick to realizing it was blocked was pretty cool (not at the time, obviously
).

Correct. I hate it when that happens.

As noted above, this is the loudest 3 hours of football I've ever experienced inside Bryant Denny. And it was with 82,000 or so. It was a damned madhouse.

Auburn moves to a clear number one for one game every other season.

Because they cheat.
Any high school stadium could get loud of they brought in air horns or other artificial noisemakers.

Alabama fans expect to win, it has been like this since Coach Bryant's days, they do cheer, but it is more like an applause

Lol Ikr? It's like they don't know that pom poms are for females and gay dudes. They're for cheerleaders. You will see grown arse hillbillies with a can of Skoal in one of their back pockets and a pom pom in the other one over there in alabama. They would get beaten up, made fun of, or get beaten up then made fun as well at lsu. Over there it's accepted and everyone does it and thinks it's cool. It's gay as hell and they act there's nothing weird about it. As LSU fans we were taught these things...men don't shake pom poms and you yell like a motherfrickin man to make noise. Grown arse men shaking pom poms...lol. it's just a very feminine thing to do.
You really need to look around at an LSU game in Baton Rouge. I have seen grown men wearing thongs or cheerleader outfits.
So please continue to talk about men shaking pom poms....
