100,000+ are roaring, the visiting team and coaches are intimidated and instead of keeping the visiting team off balance Miles runs the ball 3 times and punts. This is the visiting teams dream because it allows their players to get accustomed to the crowed. The the same thing is repeated until we are 3 score behind. To make the matter worse, the visiting team gets aggressive and keeps LSU off balance, the best recipe for keeping the crowd quiet.

I was at the game, and for some reason I didn't find the stadium loud (even at the beginning of the game). What was weird was I was shocked to hear how loud the State fans were.

It may have been due to where I was sitting, though. I was in a new section.

You're talking about two different things.


Is this thread about home field advantage or how often we run the ball?


We're 42-3 at home, at night, to answer the subject of your thread. Do the math.

Why was the crowd roaring when we were on offense?

Home field advantage with Miles offense lately, that is the question.

Edited because I didn't understand the question.


The play calling, even as frustrating as it can be at times, I don't think takes away from the home field advantage.


People want to be there and watch the game. Those who don't want to, won't go.


I'm always there along with a ton of other people.

The question is still stupid. Recently, 2-1 with the first consecutive shut outs in years before last night. Plus, your premise is that we run 3 times in a row and go three and out and punt every drive. Simply not true, despite how much you want it to be. Now, if you definition of "recent" is simply planted in the last 30 hours, no. There was no decided home field advantage.

Oh boy, looks like you have not seen LM offense.It is as predictable as the sun rising tomorrow morning. The fact that 35 of those wins are over cup cake teams does't mean the fans are excited about his offense.

As I said, you're talking about 2 different things. The fans were jammed in Tiger Stadium last night. Even the new addition in the SEZ was packed.

The fans were out in full force for home field advantage.


The play calling is for a different thread. Yes, we were too predictable and we made no adjustments last night, I agree with you there.


I think the fans are excited about being fans. Nobody is twisting their arms making them go to the game.

That is all I am talking about. I was asking if this takes away the home field advantage.

Obviously not if the place was packed. I couldn't find an empty seat around me.


Parking was insane, friends got stuck on the interstate because of so many people going to the game.


If people didn't like the offense, they wouldn't go to the game(s).

Home field advantage is based on if there is any advantage in playing on your home field. The best indicator of that is record. The record says there is quite the advantage, despite what happened last night. The loss was not a result of the lack of an advantage playing in ts. And yes. I've seen the offense.

35 cupcakes? GTFO.

Read this from the Advocate:
"There was a dramatic change in the atmosphere of Tiger Stadium when freshman quarterback Brandon Harris made his first completion Saturday night to freshman receiver Trey Quinn."
Dude, even I change the channel on my TV when I see bad offense.
