You have to go back a heck of a lot further than this recent era.
LSU fans of the 50's, 60's, and 70's were second to none. The LSU and Death Valley reputation for intimidation was established by these fans.
Today's fans and I am one, are a pale comparison to those who came before us.

I'm sure that every decade the stadium's intensity has decreased, but Tiger Stadium fell off of a cliff starting in 2012.
We ain't ever getting it back either.
You can fool yourself, but winning won't help.

I was a student in the late 60s. The student section started on about the 45 yard line and went to the corner. Band sat right in the middle of the student section. It rocked. Move the students back to where the empty corporate seats are next year. Tell the corporate folks they can buy seats where the students now sit.

There was little or no TV coverage and no sitting under a tent watching it in the parking lot..If you wanted to be a part of it you went and you stayed. The fans are overcharged now and dealing with too many new rules, and so much gameday bullshite, that it's too easy to stay home.. Going to the stadium now just makes me mad. Aleva has been the ruination of the whole gameday experience. I blame this on him and hate him for destroying something awesome..

The eighties were VERY MUCH LILE THE 60’s and ‘70’s. Take it from an old dude that has tickets since the 70’s. This really started with the traffic issues. If there was a offsite busing system in place and parking was restricted even further, you would not have this issue.

Can the 90s Tiger fans also get some love? Know one was more loud/annoying than me.

Even the shitty early/mid 90s had better crowds than now.

Absolutely the truth. No disrespect intended to Fl 1997,but Ole Miss61and 65 Notre dame 75 (74?) were more continuously can't think and can't walk without losing balance loud. When each notre dame starter had to run up to the camera in front of the student section to be introduced the noise was so bad that they stumbled and had to look down to walk...couldn't get normal feedback from their feet to keep rtheir balance. That was with 68,000 capacity. Sports Illustrated did two articles about the noise in the stadium that year. I think Tommy Casanova was on the cover, but not sure of that.

They also didn’t have access to every game in high def at home or at their fingertips. They had to go to the stadium or listen on the radio.
