Blah, blah, blah....We know, that is all you guys want to talk about is how great your place is, your team could beat Chuck Norris and 50 clones. We get it....you guys are the best ever!

If you're sick of hearing it, then get the frick out. You started the thread cocksucker. Noone asked you to come here or stay here. Get you arse back in the coal mine and get to work.

Well, depends on what you call a big game. If you consider beating the SEC champion Georgia Bulldogs in Atlanta in the Sugar Bowl, then yeah I think that was a big game.

No just the biggest one your school has ever played!

Did this guy open up by comparing Death Valley to Maryland?

The fans are not the only one's who think the opposing coaches and players may "fear" Saturday night in Tiger Stadium (taken from the Tiger Stadium website):

Tiger Stadium tradition and lore has seen its share of national publicity as one of the most talked about venues in all of sports.

In 1998, Sport Magazine named Tiger Stadium “the most feared road playing site in America,” and in 1996, ESPN named LSU’s pre-game party the best in all of America. Those surveys supported the previous polls by Gannett News Service in 1995, The Sporting News in 1989 and the College Football Association in 1987, that depict Tiger Stadium as the most difficult place for a visiting team to play.


Sports Illustrated’s Rick Reilly, in a column comparing college football to professional football, penned that “College football is LSU’s Tiger Stadium at night.” ESPN’s Chris Fowler called LSU his favorite gameday experience in the Sports Illustrated’s On Campus issue in 2003.

In 2002, after a 33-10 non-conference win over Miami (Ohio), UM coach Terry Hoeppner said of Tiger Stadium, “that’s as exciting an environment as you can have. I thought the crowd was a factor for us because we had communication problems we haven’t had at Michigan and Ohio State.”

After a victory before a national television audience on ESPN in 2001, ESPN sideline reporter Adrian Karsten said, “Death Valley in Baton Rouge is the loudest stadium I’ve ever been in. There are very few stadiums in America worth a touchdown, but the Bayou Bengals certainly have that advantage in Tiger Stadium.”

In 2005, ESPN.com ranked Tiger Stadium as the second toughest venue for an opposing team in all of sports. In 2007, the acclaim continued when The Bleacher Report ranked “Death Valley” as the third toughest venue in the world to play in. LSU’s run to a national title and record crowds led ESPN.com to proclaim Tiger Stadium as “The Scariest Place to Play in America” for an opposing team in a list of stadium rankings.

Wright Thompson of ESPN.com wrote in 2008, “It was electric. When Death Valley is rocking, it seems as if it might actually take flight. On Saturday, I went back to Baton Rouge to see Alabama barely beat LSU, and was, once again, reminded that Tiger Stadium is the best place in the world to watch a sporting event.”

The stadium’s sheer noise and tradition has carried into a new decade. In 2010, The Sporting News proclaimed Tiger tailgating and “Saturday Night in Death Valley” as the top gameday tradition in all of college football.

Hopefully TS continues to live up to the hype. It has continued to set the standard for sporting venues.

I hope you can enjoy it safely and see the stadium for all it is worth. It can be a surreal experience!

WVU douche bags...it is not about the fans being scared...who really wants to scare fans. The players on the other hand have their nerves wrecked in that stadium. Dumb F'ers one toofers

Speaking of that Sugar Bowl win over the SEC champion Georgia Bulldogs in Atlanta, if memory serves me correctly.....didn't that Georgia team totally undress you guys in the SEC championship game in the same building and cost you a shot at the National Championship???? Just sayin'

The Mountaineers have no shot in an 8 o'clock night game at LSU. Destruction will be the name of the game tonight. You will have to get your SEC road win elsewhere. We are going to kick your arse in Morgantown next year too so get ready for that hillbilly.
