I've seen oranges fly.

I saw Miami bring a Hurricane with them.

I have seen the goalposts come down more than once.

I have seen the field filled with fans.

I have seen an earthquake happen.

Saturday was proof Tiger Stadium is the legend it is.

That is why you buy your tickets.

If LSU leaves College Station with a win....11/3 will make last Saturday look like a Baptist tea party...

because we've been there before

when we were underdogs with no shot, winning against the big boys it was expected that we rush the field

but we're supposed to win these games, or at least compete, so now we dont

also the army of cops surrounding the field makes it difficult

Might want to edit your subject.

Yes, tiger stadium was back Saturday night. Unbelievable atmosphere and a huge factor in the game. I have seen every game on your list (with the exception of the oranges game - FSU?)

when you are one of the premier college football programs in the country, your fans don't rush the field...

it will take years of Ole Miss level futility for that to happen...or the Tigers beating the New England Patriots....

When it happened they could have had 300 cops and the field still would have been full. It was like stopping a tidal wave. We are winning too much for that to happen again... Hopefully it stays that way.

Tiger Stadium, LSU fans, LSU players and coaches needed sat night to happen just they way it did... Alleman mentioned week or two ago all they needed was a spark,, hopefully that was it.

the reason i said wish we could is because they do not allow it anymore, I've been to games where we tried but state troopers would not allow it

i say lets rush the field after we beat bama and all leave $5 or so as we leave the stadium to pay for the SEC fine. ($25,000 i think)

it's not the place it was back in the 70's....

no more open admissions and a 21 year old drinking age means that no more drunken 18 year olds who would come for one semester to scream their heads off...and then the fire marshalls cracking down on student section seating...no more 12 students on a 10 person row...

nahh, all the negative fricks who sold their tickets for USCe will be back on the bandwagon for Bama.

These are the corporate types that ask you to sit bc you're blocking their view of a key 3rd down, not scream so loud, get pissed when you toss your whiskey & coke after a long TD run, etc.
