Is this the most rowdy Tiger Stadium has been for about 5 minutes?

That TD and then OT might have been the loudest I’ve ever heard the stadium.

Mason Taylor’s 2PT catch was statistically the loudest it’s ever been in Tiger stadium

I'll remember that night for the rest of my life. Great time with some great friends. The stadium showed off in ways only certain nights can provide.

These two moments are up there for me

Herbstreit tweet after the game:
"What a night. @LSUfootball fans…thank you for a special night-such a scene. Incredible honor for @cbfowler @sportsiren myself and our entire team to be there tonight. Why we do what we do-hope for nights like this. Thank you! #ShootItInMyVeins," he tweeted late on Saturday night.

That is very possible. And I should know because I have seen all the great moments since 1966.

I'll say this, I've never watched a game that was that loud on TV. I can't imagine how awesome it must've been in person. I was at Georgia in '03 and Florida in '07, but that game sounded like a different kind of animal. It was loud throughout.

Start to finish...loudest Tiger Stadium moment for me was LSU vs USC

RJFs blocked FG against Alabama in 2008 that sent the game to OT
Maybe not continuous noise, but I bet single loudest

It was one of my favorite games to write about
Saban and the Nat (an homage)
Saban and the Nat-an epic reading
Saban and The Nat
The outlook wasn’t brilliant,
For the Crimson Tide that day,
The score stood Fourteen-Nine,
with but one quarter left to play,
They’d been outscored at Tennessee,
Would now be much the same?
A roar of rancor rained down from,
the patrons at the game.
For none had left at halftime, No,
They stayed and gave their best,
And screamed like fiends infernal,
With a burning in their breasts;
Gumps thought, "It’s just Death Valley,
Saban wins there and that’s that—
You can bet your bottom dollar now,
for Saban and the Nat."
Handoff to Roydell Williams,
the first touchdown they would make,
Seemed the same Death Valley Hoodoo,
And the refs were on the take,
But within that drunken multitude,
great mirth and fervor spat,
Could it be Death Valley dashed,
This time, Nick’s Chances at the Nat?
“Commitment’s not Convenient,”
Coaches preached, as pundits bawled
All ‘a sudden studs stood silent,
As a Heisman drive stood stalled,
And when the dust had lifted,
and men saw what had occurred,
Gumps were stifled for a touchdown,
Forced to kick a three point turd.
Firsts by Daniels, Boutte, Nabors,
Kick is good, tack on three more,
Saban’s card said go for two,
But was denied a crucial score,
From a hundred thousand throats,
Again there rose a lusty yell;
Rumbling Once more through Death Valley,
Like a roaring straight from Hell;
But again Bryce Young would scramble,
Finding Brooks out in the flat,
Once more Bama, and Coach Saban,
were advancing to the Nat.
There was fear in Saban’s visage
as he scowled down on the line;
He was running out of options,
He was running out of time.
He went for two, again denied,
Yet still ahead, at that,
Not much it seemed, would stand between,
Lord Saban and the Nat.
Unnumbered eyes were on him as he paced,
That little gnome;
Unnumbered tongues now cursed him,
Poised to knock him from his Throne;
Then Williams broke a run,
And Taylor pulled one down to score,
Anger flashed in Saban’s eyes,
As Tigers Kicked for Twenty Four.
The Gumps drove down the field again,
Fans cried out with despair,
And Saban stood and watched
as Reichard tied it in the air.
Fans questioned the decision,
As the time ticked off with dread,—
"ain't my style," said Coach Kelly,
“Let’s Go at it Head to head.”
Some things Aflac doesn’t cover,
There went up a raucous roar,
And a howling in Death Valley,
Shook the earth down to its core
On that day each side tailgated,
Ate their fill and slaked their thirst,
Tension building like a bubble,
Like a boudin ‘bout to burst,
But Ol Nicky was undaunted;
for the REC had paid their dues;
Then he got the flag he wanted,
refs care not about reviews;
So Saban got the touchdown,
and their kick was good for one,
One last shot left for the Tigers,
for the game was almost done,
Once more would Saban stand there,
and wear his fearsome frown,
Once more would Bama best them,
once more take the Tigers down
The Gumps they knew that Bama
wouldn’t be by Kelly Beat,
Just stop the Tigers once,
and then their end would be complete,
The Valley boomed as Jayden ran,
borne forth by brutal blocks,
A touchdown scored again,
and once again the Valley Rocked,
There’s only one play left,
no clock, no kick, two points to go;
Death Valley held its breath
as Daniels threw the final throw.
And now the game is over,
and now all the doing’s done,
The Game, the Name they gave it,
It was Earthquake Two Point Won;
Down the bayou men are laughing,
Tigers roar and children shout,
But there is no joy in Gumpville—
mighty Saban has lost out.

Two underrated awesome moments in TS:
- When RJF blocked the the game winning FG in 2008 during Saban's first return to TS. LSU lost in OT, so that sucked, but it was insanity after that block.
- The 05 Auburn game when John Vaughn missed 5 missed FGs, the last being the game loser in OT facing the student section. TS was electric after the final miss and LSU win.

I was at the earthquake game as I'm sure most of you were, it was very close to being as loud as that game. But, I would put it second slightly. What a glorious night it was beating Bama in OT in an all or nothing play call.

Wasn't at the Alabama game = but I was at the Cannon TD punt return 1n 1959.
Would be hard to be louder than that one - unless the greater attendance created more decibels.
Not to take away from the JD to MS miracle = both were out of this world.
