Unfortunately I was not physically present at LSU-Florida in 2007... and I'll never forgive myself for it :(



But for constant, unrelenting intensity of noise... LSU vs Miss St in 2000 when MSU had 'porkchop' whoever on defense and were leading by 2 tds heading into 4th qtr but we were beginning to seize control...

That entire 15 min 4th qtr and eventually OT was the absolute LOUDEST I have ever experienced. It never let up. You couldn't hear shite. We scored 21 in the 4th to tie it up and then won in OT.

To the folks who were there and remember it...
LSU-Ten in OT that year with the goalposts coming down wasn't close in actual noise level.

The Swamp and Kyle are the only 2 I've been to that can even be in the conversation.

When Cannon went by Jake Gibbs on THE PUNT RETURN, if you were listening on the radio you couldn't even hear the announcer talking directly into the mike. The crowd completely drowned him out. That noise was like white noise when your TV goes out. Only comparison I remember was Jones to Brad Davis with one second to go. Those were awesome.

Those Aggies have no idea what they're getting themselves into by joining the SEC and talking this much crap.

When they blocked Alabama's kick to send the game to OT in 08 was the loudest I've ever heard it, and I've gone to almost every game for the past 10 years.

Have been on both fields during big games......LSU is louder. The Aggies do have this weird droning sound with the coordinated yells and it is loud, but its not the same as the pure emotion of passionate LSU fans.

Seriously, bias aside.....LSU is louder .....so is Autzen.

Sorry Aggies.

It's not louder, but they chant stuff all at the same time swaying back and forth so it sounds pretty cool. I will say that Tiger Stadium in the last 6 years is considerably quieter.

This - it may just be that since I'm moving into the old geezer age range I just can't hear as well as I used to, but it seems to me we've become much more sedate. The intensity was more consistent back a decade or so ago.

Regarding A&M, it is a loud stadium as the students do a good job of keeping up the noise through much of the game through the synced cheers and stuff, but when it comes to peak noise levels they don't stack up vs. Tiger Stadium.

However, I happily let them claim the nut- squeezing championship - No one believes it till they see it

Kyle may be louder, but only because all the Corps are yelling from "squeeze em"

Tiger Stadium

Bleacher Report 2011 Top 25 loudest Stadiums: LSU #1

Bleacher Report 2010 Power Ranking The 50 Loudest College Football Stadiums: LSU #1

Bleacher Report 2011 Power Ranking The 50 Loudest College Football Stadiums: LSU #1

quote:

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."


quote:

In 2001,ESPN sideline reporter Adrian Karsten said, "Death Valley in Baton Rouge is the loudest stadium I've ever been in."


quote:

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."


quote:

In 2003, ESPN's Chris Fowler called LSU his favorite game day experience.


quote:

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.[7] 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."


quote:

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.



Kyle Field

quote:

Kyle Field is regarded as one of the most intimidating college football stadiums in the nation.


quote:

CBS Sportsline listed Kyle Field as the nation's best with a perfect score in three categories (atmosphere, tradition, and fans).


quote:

Contributing to its reputation in the 1990s, Texas A&M boasted one of the nation's best home records at 55-4-1, including 31 straight wins at Kyle Field from 1990 to 1995 and 22 straight from 1996 to 2000. From 2000 through 2011, however, the record of Texas A&M at Kyle Field is 52–28 (a winning percentage of 65%, down from 93.2% in the 1990s).


quote:

It is ranked as the #4 stadium in the nation by The Sporting News


quote:

The college recruiting ranking service Rivals ranked Texas A&M as having the seventh-best home field advantage in the nation with Kyle Field
(Tiger Stadium ranked #2 in same poll)

quote:

In 2002, ESPN's Kirk Herbstreit listed Kyle Field's atmosphere the best in the nation. When he was broadcasting a 2010 game at Kyle Field, Herbstreit said that it was the best stadium and fans in the country


quote:

In addition, Texas A&M has been rated No. 17 in the nation by The Princeton Review in the category "Students Pack the Stadiums."[42]


Kyle Field is all about Atmosphere, I could find no survey/poll/ranking where they were in the top 5 for loudness. Tiger Stadium, however, was in the Top 5 for every one i saw and #1 in many.

I have never been to Death Vally during a game but from what I have been watching on Youtube I think Kyle field is louder than Death Vally.

Aggie fans are a lot like soccer fans.

they do a lot of singing in unison, but it isn't that loud.

also, another way that aggie fans are like soccer fans is that they might be gay
