A few recent examples that come to mind are 18 Georgia, 22 Tennessee and 25 A&M.

These stand out big time. I vividly remember seeing a sea of red, orange and maroon all over the entire stadium.

I really don’t want to see it again in November with Texas coming to town. I mean come on folks stop selling your tickets to away fans. I’d rather see an empty stadium than one full of visiting fans. It’s so embarrassing

If Texas takes over Tiger Stadium that will be extremely flattering.

They haven’t cared enough to take over anything ever.

I think he’s just referring to when there are a lot of opposing fans in the Tiger Stadium

Many of our fans leaving at halftime doesn't help.

Don't blame them for taking over the stadium, blame the home fans for selling tickets and making excuses for not going like jazzfest or something retarded like that

Is it a takeover if all of the LSU fans left so those opposing fans were the only ones left?

The problem is people are listing tickets at a ridiculous price and people are paying those prices. That eliminates a lot of locals from baton rouge and new orleans. Going to a game isn't really a vacation so locals don't want to spend money like they are on vacation.

There were a lot of GA fans. I wouldn’t call it a takeover though.

It was an impressive showing.

I would love for LK to call out all of "fans" that leave early. SABAN did it at Alabama with lots od success. I know, I know the traffic. Come on people its only 7 Saturdays a year.

I left at the mid point of the 3rd during the A&M game. I will say the last time old piss played in tiger stadium no one left. It just never felt like we were losing in the stadium. Thats probably the best game I've been too.

It was the most visiting fans I’ve ever seen in the stadium. Fortunately, there was nothing to take over because LSU dominated the game from start to finish.

Real authentic LSU fans don't leave at halftime.

Those departing at halftime are mostly part of the huge corporate give-a-way freebie crowd

They have no connection to the University and/or the football program.

They're given tickets free of charge and the entire thing is just "Something to do on a Saturday Night"

Unfortunately, they're becoming more dominant in Tiger Stadium.

PIM is also responsible for driving some away at halftime as well.

I wouldn’t call it a takeover. They may have had a lot of fans there, but definitely wasn’t a takeover. A takeover is what UGA did to Notre Dame. UGA probably had 45%-50% of the crowd in ND stadium. Texas am just seemed like a lot bc most lsu fans had left the game.

This isn’t true. I attended the Texas Michigan game this year and they had a ton of fans there. I expect the same at lsu. We have to learn to accept that we are a bucket list venue. With that said I would never sell a ticket to a visiting fan.

Usually in the second half when home team fans depart leaving the stadium to the visitors.

People leaving looks horrible on TV...
It's become embarrasing. Those folks should have their tix confiscated. Unacceptable.
