Yes, I was at the LSU-Michigan* game back in '75 and the big house has rocking (if you're going to lie, go all the way).
*LSU has never played Michigan in football.

You can probably hear a pin drop in the Big House this year. That game wouldn't faze any decent team in the road.

I've been to all 3 stadiums. Went to every LSU home game from 2005 to 2008. Did the same for Michigan from 2009 to 2011. Now I'm doing it for Notre Dame. I'm primarily an LSU fan, but I'm being objective here, if you haven't been to all 3 like me, then you really should give it shot.
Dude, Michigan is a wine and cheese crowd. There is no comparison and you should know this. Even younger Michigan fans are constantly bitching about how they wish the Bluehairs would finally start filtering out.
Plus the stadium is a big bowl, dug out of the earth. The top of the stands only rise about 40 feet off of the street, which is just not conducive to producing the type of crowd noise that other similar capacity stadiums produce (LSU,Florida).
Michigan environment is much more similar to Tennessee if you were to compare it to an SEC school.

Been to ND and that is blatantly false. Big house looks to be awesome, but I'd say Les would know more about that than you considering he was a player and a coach and has repeatedly said no where compares to tiger stadium as have spurrier, Saban. And many other coaches. J

Despite being 14–2 at Tiger Stadium, famed Alabama head coach Bear Bryant once remarked that "Baton Rouge happens to be the worst place in the world for a visiting team. It's like being inside a drum."[7] In 2001,ESPN sideline reporter Adrian Karsten said, "Death Valley in Baton Rouge is the loudest stadium I've ever been in."[8] In 2002, Miami (Ohio) coach Terry Hoeppner said of Tiger Stadium, "That's as exciting an environment as you can have ... we had communication problems we haven't had at Michigan and Ohio State."[8] In 2003, ESPN's Chris Fowler called LSU his favorite game day experience.[8] In 2009 former Arkansas Governor Mike Huckabee stated on Sean Hannity's Fox News show that "Unfair is playing LSU on a Saturday night in Baton Rouge." Survey after survey has concluded that Tiger Stadium is the most difficult place for a visiting team to play, including surveys by the College Football Association in 1987, The Sporting News in 1989, Gannett News Service in 1995, and Sport Magazine in 1998.[8] More recently, in 2007, ESPN named Tiger Stadium "the scariest place to play," saying that "Tiger Stadium is, by far, the loudest stadium in the country."[9] In 2009, ESPN writer Chris Low listed Tiger Stadium's Saturday night atmosphere as unsurpassed in the country, ranking it No. 1 out of the conference's 12 stadiums.[10] LSU prefers night games in Tiger Stadium with its opponents, but television coverage requires that many contests be played in the afternoons. The university is conflicted over maximizing its potential to win to needed advertising revenues from television coverage. As explained by Chet Hilburn in The Mystique of Tiger Stadium: 25 Greatest Games: The Ascension of LSU Football, "The Tigers are apt to win more games at night in Tiger Stadium but the university takes in much more revenue for a day game televised by CBS because of the Southeastern Conference contract with the network is so lucrative."[11] In 2008, as Alabama narrowly defeated LSU, Wright Thompson of ESPN.com described Tiger Stadium as "the best place in the world to watch a sporting event."[12]

If there was a stadium louder than Tiger Stadium it would be shut down by the a federal Safety Commission as a health hazard ( hearing loss). I hear Tiger Stadium is just under thst threshold.

If there were a stadium that was louder, the crowd would start sobbing like the "double rainbow man".
