1. Was the resulting earthquake a product of the crowd noise, jumping of fans, or both?



I've told this story before, but my memory of that game is this. We sat in the Northeast corner, very far away from the game winning td. When the ball was passed I couldn't really see if it was caught or not, but the entire North Endzone jumped at the same time. I swear it was synchronized jumping on the first leap.

It's possible the "earthquake came from the jumping.

. The stadium was filled to a capacity of roughly 80,000 that game


LSU was losing 6-0 with less than 2 minutes to go. One other memory I have is that everytime late in the game that we would have to punt, people would be leaving and some LSU fans was mocking the losers with no faith, "Where are you going Tiger fans? Why are you leaving?"

Now there wasn't near the exodus that we saw in 2014 vs Miss State, but some people were leaving nonetheless.
