re: How was the crowd% LSU vs Aggies

you could hear a pin drop when they had the ball.

Yeah, we're silent when our offense is on the field so they can make calls, etc.

I was in Section 303 and it appeared the stadium was 65% Aggies. I'm going to assume my side of the stadium was at least 90% Ags. One of the end zones was 95-100% Ags. The end zone next to the LSU band was probably 60% Ags, with the upper sections being 80% LSU. The LSU side was probably around 20% Ags.

That said, I was impressed by how many LSU fans there were in the stands, 'cause yeah, the SEC having to wait 'til after their championship game to declare bowl games (as was my understanding of the late LSU announcement) allowed a bunch of Aggies to purchase tickets to the game on both sides.

I thought the 12th Man did a great job to start the game, but began to trail off later in the game. Y'all may not like this, but the only LSU section that appeared rowdy all game was the band. In the 4th quarter and at the end of the game there was a 400s-level section in the end zone that seemed to have a bunch of rowdy LSU fans. Considering how outnumbered y'all were, I thought y'all made a good deal of noise.

The LSU fans seated to my left were good neighbors throughout the game. I enjoyed hearing their perspective and even laughed at the stark contrast in reactions from play to play.
