We can all agree the fans have become spoiled jackasses who leave games early. If you compare the early 2000s to now it is night and day. The atmosphere isn't close to being the same. My question is when was the last great year in TS as far as fan atmosphere goes.

'12 Alabama was great

It was pretty quiet at the end of the 1st half and beginng of the 2nd half..but it was overall really electric

What year? Would have to be 07. The South Carolina game, Florida, Auburn and Arkansas games were great

Troy game 2006(?). Shouldn't have been such a great game but it was. Russell to Bowe for the game winning TD. I could be mistaken though.

Ole Miss game 2012. Beckham's punt return TD to effectively win the game was awesome.

I wouldn't say it started in 2000. But yeah after 2007, it hasn't been nearly as consistent.

2005 was great with the exception of the Tennessee game.

Home schedule sucked too bad in 2006

Every year there are games that bring back the magic but as a whole 2007 was the last year of every game having an energetic deaf crowd from start to finish.

the road schedule was insane that year. All four games were against top ten teams at the time of the game.

USCe and Alabama were both fantastic atmospheres in 2012. 2011 as a whole was great.

Seemed like we just caught some bad breaks last year when it came to our three "big" home games. Auburn was during/after a deluge, Florida game was at 2:30 when it was unbelievably hot, and the A&M game was at 2:30 on a day when it was cold, rainy, and windy.

2011 was great but the atmosphere was not the same as previous years. It really did stop after the second bcs title. I think day games ruined it too.
