You obviously didn't understand so I will elaborate further. The players spend half their year on LSU's campus. The student section is an extension of the student body. I guarantee they care more about it than the rest of the stadium hence they sing the alma mater with the student section. This in no way takes away from the rest of the stadiums importance on game day but the student's in that section are the tip of the spear that gets these guys to come to school at LSU and in turn play football for our beloved tigers.

this is a tradition (& a good one)...but don't make it sound like the players all get together and say, "hey, let's go sing the alma mater to the students" I guarantee more than half don't know the alma mater.

get over yourself....if you really believe that a 5* player's deciding factor is the student section at the home games, then you are truly delusional.
Overall atmosphere at games matters, sure. But how much it matters and, more importantly, the extent of that overall atmosphere directly attributable to the student section is debatable.

That being said, the overall stadium attendance is a real problem....certainly in the SS but also elsewhere.
