It sounded unhinged on TV. In a good way.

The kids that rushed the field were not born for the 1997 Florida win. This is their win. This is their LSU experience in the most iconic cathedral to football in the country. These are the memories that those young people will have for the rest of their lives. This was peak Tiger Stadium that Bear Bryant, Nick Saban, Tim Tebow and SVP have all stated is different from any other place on this earth.

I wish they still did the field level video highlights. That really shows how loud it is.

Death Valley rushed the field because we love its hallowed grounds. We didn’t rush the field because Ole Miss is awesome, we rushed it because Death Valley is awesome!!!

I was watching from Texas, it was awesome.

After the late Interception when the lights went out and (it looked like) everyone had some type wrist band with a light on it blinking ?

It was for sure rocking and a great win for everyone.

Rushing the field didn’t make sense here. This wasn’t 1997 Florida. Not even close. Can we act like we are a blue blood or is that too much?


That crowd showed up and wreaked havoc for 4 quarters of mostly ugly football. Emotions were high and the win was epic. I give them a pass for last night.

The Ole Miss fans didn’t do themselves any favors by screaming their bullshite chant repeatedly during LSU’s Alma Mater being played pregame.
The Tiger Band played Neck at least four times, so everyone knew that they wanted Death Valley rocking.
The continuous faking of injuries by Kiffin’s team in close games pisses everyone off.
And it’s Ole Miss at Death Valley on Saturday night with playoff implications potentially on the line. It was a GREAT environment that won’t be forgotten

I never even heard it on the TV. I guess the crowd noise was drowning it out.

It was mostly during commercial breaks I think.

I was there, in the bowl. Head hurts, ears ringing right now. I’ve been to the big games over the years, and this one ranks way up there.

The fans that were there were loud. It looked a little emptier than I expected though. This was the West side in the late 4th quarter:

Gotcha. They probably didn’t want the national television audience to hear the obscene part.

My wife sent me a pic of the student section at the end of regulation from our seats. I'm working, she went with my son to the game.

Probably because the Ole Miss fans were asshats during the pregame Alma Mater. Neck being played, especially on repeat like that, is likely reserved for special occasions.
