Anybody remember this,

Mike roaring in the stadium
Everybody on their feet going nuts
Every seat taken, even at the end
Players feeding off of the passion and energy of the fans!

Can’t believe this was 15 years ago. Gave me chills watching it. What do we need to do to get Death Valley back to it’s glory days??

I mean, anyone who was at that game would tell you that it was one of the top 5, if not the best, game in tiger stadium over the last 20 years. Games like that don’t come around often. That’s not the standard your average game should be held to

There have been a few games like that game since. The 07 FL game. Hell this years Bama game was pretty badass the first quarter and a half. You,re never getting Mike back in the Stadium and it doesn’t have anything to do with Alleva.

You honestly don't believe the atmosphere for Bama matched that?

We had 12k more fans at Bama and UGA this season than we did any game 15 years ago.

So Mike can’t do his roar thing. That would be cool but we ain’t going back to that.

Greatest/my favorite game in TS I ever attended (since 1990).

We can do absolutely nothing.. those years were a perfect storm. It iscombination of having legitimate national championship aspirations, being starved of good seasons and national recognition and a great stadium. So unless you wanna go through the dark ages of LSU football for decades your just going to have to accept Death Valley for what it’s become. That’s the price you pay for being a perennially good team. Without the bitter years the sweet years just aren’t as savory.

Death Valley still gets up for big games. UGA, MSU, and Bama for a half, were as electric as any game in the last 30 years, with the exception of a few (UGA 03, UF 07).

If we scored and were competitive w bama this year, the atmosphere would have been record level.

Every seat taken,


So a September game, #11 LSU vs #7 Georgia. That should attract lots of interest and a pretty lit student section. Kinda like this years game against Georgia did.

Also, the capacity of the stadium was 91,600 rather than 102,321 and the actual cost of tickets was lower so i think fewer people were selling big game tickets to pay for their season tickets.

I do look forward to more games where the crowd is like the Georgia and Bama games were, at least at the start for Bama.

Every seat taken, even at the end


The game ws 7-3 LSU at half, 10-3 LSU at the end of the 3rd Quarter, 10-10 with 4:46 left, and the winning score with 1:30 left in the game. That may account for no one leaving.

Those games are fun when you win, heartbreaking to lose. My heart prefers think I prefer a blowout we win, I think.

Damn....Saban looks like a young puppy in that clip. Guess the stress of trying to live up to his own expectation is catching up on him.
