Kyle is the most loudest venue in college football and most imtimidating without debate. No one beats the 12th Man in noise volume and class! I have discussed this very topic with numerous Ags and we all agree, not a single person didn't think Kyle was the best, loudest, and most intimidating (yet classy) place to play.

Gig Em!

This was during a timeout in tigerstadium. Final score of the USC vs. Stanford game was announced. USC lost. That means something at LSU. We play for "Big Things".

Did you all ever record on a seismograph?

Death Valley is louder and it's not even close. Kyle Field was loud back in the day of the WC. It's loud when you play shut down defense, and that's been a while. I'm class of '95 and never saw us lose a game at Kyle when we didn't bet on the spread, but if a team would cross mid field. Crowds get loud for defense not offense - see OU, Nebraska '10

Been to lsu and Kyle for big games. Kyle is louder and is a bigger home field advantage because yells are organized.

If Old Army didn't sit on their hands the whole game, Kyle would be louder without a doubt.

What makes Tiger Stadium so crazy is that the alumni make just as much noise as the students.

Old Army watched good defense - bring it back..

USC still drives lsu up the wall.

Pretty funny.

Tiger stadium renovations?
Lipstick on a pig.

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.

A recruit who was at the Nebraska game year before last had just taken a trip to LSU against a big SEC opponent and said Kyle Field was way louder and better atmosphere!

Watch the YouTube videos earlier in the thread. The LSU one says get loud, but doesn't even hold a candle to the Kyle field video and nobody is telling the Ags to get loud.

I have a feeling Florida at Kyle Field at night is gonna be insane loud!!!!

Tiger Stadium gets loud on key plays or celebrations, but is nothing compared to the consistent noise of Kyle.

Most intimidated I've ever been was at Tiger Stadium.

Tiger Stadium is the loudest SEC venue I've ever been to.

For it's size, War Memorial Stadium in Little Rock is also amazingly loud. South Carolina is also surprisingly loud.

Acoustics play as big a role as crowd size. Scott Field at State isn't all that loud (cowbells aside), because of the relatively open design.

Tiger Stadium is awesome and it's loud and it's got a ton of pageantry. So does Kyle Field, but we lose a lot of yelling noise from the Zone and out the South Endzone.

Just wait until we rebuild and check back in 2014/2015. Then we can have an Apples/Apples conversation.

It's almost impossible to compare crowd noise.... just too many factors. Your seat location, how close fans are to the field, stadium acoustics, where the loudest fans are seated in the stadium (students) and how many seats the students have, artificial noise makers, rankings of the teams playing, rivalry, etc.

I've been to games in Starkville, MS that have been louder than games I've been to in Tiger Stadium. 40K cowbells can get loud. I've also been to games in Bryant-Denny and Jordan-Hare where it got so crazy that the stadium felt like it was shaking. My eardrums rang for a week after the Bama-Florida game in Gainesville in 99. OU fans said they'd never been in a louder stadium after playing at Bama in 2003.

It really just depends on too many variables to try to compare 2 random stadium experiences.

I was at the triple overtime game against Arky in baton rouge when LSU was #1 and wound up losing a heartbreaker, very loud. but i was also at Kyle for the nebraska 9-6 victory, louder. LSU can be louder and quieter becuase they fluctuate based on who they are playing while kyle is a consistent loud atmosphere.

To address the seismic activity comment, we dont have a seismograph right across the street from the stadium, not that beating kentucky isnt a big accomplishment...

Credentials: have not missed a home A&M game in 5 years, Dad played football at LSU so i practically grew up in death valley

been to both - kyle may be a bit louder, but not nearly as intimidating. crazy drunk cajuns at night make for quite an atmosphere.

actually saw a very old lady throw a beer at ag fans after leeland mcelroy busted a late run to win a game at lsu...

We can be louder but often we are not. For big games against big, highly ranked opponents we are very loud (like Nebraska). But for day games against average opponents we are very average.

This. Those coona**s never grow up. They, educated and tee-shirt fan alike, are like drunk 19 year olds. And this comes from an old fart that has never missed an A&M/LSU game since 1970.

However, you can't compare the two, one is orchestrated and one is just wild. Both are great in its own way.



Last of the Old Army

ncube - it was Auburn and the geologists were surprised that it recorded it.

Riley Milner, research associate with the Louisiana Geological Survey, was the first one to discover the seismograph reading. He walked into the Howe-Russell Geoscience Complex on the Monday after the game, and the seismogram caught his eye.

“I saw a very distinct recording of something and my first reaction was, ‘What in the world is this?’” he said. He took the seismogram to Donald Stevenson, the researcher then in charge of LSU’s seismic program. “We tried to figure out what it might be, and we backed up the time and realized it coordinated perfectly with the time of the touchdown,” Milner said. “It was a total surprise. We never expected the seismograph to pick up the ground shaking from a football game.”

The '92 and '94 games at LSU were loud, but were not the best teams...........I am sure they are plenty loud now.

Overall, great atmosphere for a game and would certainly go back.

Another thing in remember watching the LSU games on TV over the years they used to show the VU meter on air when the crowds got loud and it was off the charts.

I have been to one game at Kyle - the Baylor game last year and it was loud and a lot of fun. I participated in the loudness over on the alumni die where I was seated. It was great fun.

I dont think who is the loudest really means anything. Both schools have pride and traditions and will always feel they are better than the rest, as do all of the other schools I am sure. As long as its a fun, safe environment, have fun and enjoy it.

Kyle field is by far the loudest in the country and it's not even close.

Been to 2 LSU Auburn night games and every A&M home game since 1986. A&M gets louder, but LSU is an amazing atmosphere. Their tailgating is hands-down the best. If we would tone down the jumbotron commercials, the atmoshere would rival anyone.

Ours fluctuates on who were playing too... We had a top 20 team vs mizzou and even when it was close the place wasn't loud

1)That game was at 11am

2)That game was depressing as f***

3)Our team had already blown so many first half leads that no one expected us to win, even up by double digits at halftime.

This is a reason NOT to be loud?!

Don't blame me, 06. I was loud as hell in the student section. Also very pissed off. But it was 11am and half of the stadium left when we started crumbling in the 3rd quarter.

I think that was when the Aggies actually quit on Mike Sherman. The Texas game was just icing on the cake.

It takes one hell of a team to go there and win at night.

Been there done that. That was many moons ago though......

LSU is probably as tough a place as you're going to play. However back in the mid/late 80's, when we were just starting to get that taste of success after a pretty long down period.....there was NO place like Kyle on game day. Anywhere. Ask Brett Stafford.......Once we got a little fat and happy it just wasn't the same. Until that night 2 yrs ago against Nebraska.....THAT's what it used to be like. I'm hoping the SEC coming in reinvigorates the fan base back to that kind of passion. God knows we're gonna need it for a few years......

Tiger Stadium, I rate 2nd... behind Kyle.

They do a good job! And they are damn loud!

Been to Bama, Arkansas, etc...

I've been to all 12 of the old SEC venues, making my first trip to Kyle this fall.

UGA, FL, AU are loud.

But, Tiger Stadium and the new added on to Bryant Denny are by far the loudest and I would give the edge to Bama. With 100,000 plus in there, for a tight game, it was deafening.

I just hope the Hogs and Aggies have a night game so we can tailgate all day and soak up some atmosphere that night!

Something we hold over LSU for sure. put this in another thread, but it applies here in some way i think. what he says at 5:10-5:17

We are loud. They are loud. Truce?

I have been to a game at Tiger Stadium. It's a great scene. Very intimidating and very loud. When Kyle is rocking, Kyle blows it away and it's not even close.
