Sat night I went to the UH vs Texas Tech game and was amazed at the crowds energy the whole game. They only had 33100, and that was the only thing that made it less exciteing than 92000. I know it is infrequent that a big game is like that on UH campus, but overall it points out how spoiled LSU fans are (generally) . . . We show up for the "big" and the other home games are poorly attended with people sitting on their hands. . . wish this trend could change

I've been to every game this year and was blown away by our fan turnout. Seattle? We brought close to 20,000 fans across the country to play a team that went 0-12 last year. In addition, that game was the farthest thing from a big game.

Yep. you are correct and we owned the West upper at Starkville too.

Great turnout of Tigers. My only complaint would be the ones in Starkville were too lame and lazy.

i think some of it has to do with the fact the atmosphere is lil more corporate driven today for homes vs mainly the diehards that were accustomed to going a few years back. The diehards will travel that's why I saw such a huge crowd in Seattle, and a vocal bunch up in starkvegas. just my opinion.
