Your stadium is almost as pitiful as your record vs LSU

Name a bigger home game at Kyle Field since 1992 than #1 Alabama at #6 Texas A&M with that A&M team, the Heisman winning QB and the follow-up to the upset game in 2012.
What does this have to do with the game saban was talking about?

apparently he thinks kyle field only gets loud once every 25 years. nebraska and oklahoma in 2010 was louder than Bama 2013.

I didn't say that. I asked what games were bigger.

Was that not Sabans quote about 2013? Can't imagine it was about 2015.

Meh, A&M hasn't had a defense to get behind unfortunately for some time. Stadium noise correlates with a good defense at A&M. Old ags won't get excited if they can't get behind what they remember from the 80's and 90's when the stadium was consistently rocking. The only year lately that remotely comes close to those defenses was 2010 with Von Miller. The Nebraska game from 2010 was a 9-6 win, clearly defensive game. Loudest game at Kyle from start to finish I've ever experienced.
Unfortunately none of the visiting SEC fans have ever experienced that atmosphere. Not saying it's better than others, but when we have a defense, it's as good as any.

Totally agree with you. And those terrifying defenses A&M had in the 80s and 90s were stadium rattling I'm sure.

Farmer I have always enjoyed road trips to College Station but can honestly say I enjoy games more now because at end of season and not September. Brutally hot in September

They were indeed. Of course the other problem now vs back then is the constant advertising on the Jumbotron between tv timeouts. I get it from a financial standpoint, but damn it kills the mood. Get a game swinging interception or fumble recovery, get the crowed fired up, then kill the atmosphere with a 5 minute ad on life changing tacos after the game

Saving the username in memory... this guy gets it.

Sure hasn't helped your win/loss record. I would say that you have progressively gotten worse as your stadium has improved!

seems to be a growing trend with "new army". olsen field and even g rollie white were absolute hell houses to play in in the 80s.

When Johnny threw that pass to Evans at the end of the '13 Bama game that was the loudest I've experienced in Kyle. I'm a youngster though
