LSD and college football, that has to be good for a little extra noise.

Cal has some noise. I usually hit a game there every Fall.

The Cal fan base is underrated. Went to the Cal – Stanford game in 2002 as the Tedford era was starting and snuck into the student section. It was insanely loud.

That maniacal laugh has reverberating powers that last the whole day.

I tried it at the bank the other day. Not recommended.

Roach,

enclosing the north endzone has certainly helped contain the sound. There are also 16k more warm bodies that can theoretically make loud noises.

The Mizzou game was indeed loud as shit in the first half. One of the more enjoyable home games in the last decade.

Since I’m in out of state, the only game I’ve been to at neo Jamal field at Daryl K Royal war memorial stadium at the University of Texas at Austin was Missouri last year, and it was unbelievably loud. Especially for someone who was at UT in the early 90’s–you know the days of the $5 HEB end zone ticket.

There was a great echo harmonic frequency thing going on too. If only I remembered my acoustics analysis class I’m sure I could figure out what was going on.

Due to the crappy BCS system and the unbalanced risk vs reward of scheduling tough non-conference games. Its no wonder DKR is a grave yard most of the time. Its like married sex –safe, easy and quiet enough to not wake the kids. Sure you could hook up with a stripper or a Kardashian (read Miami) and scream the night away, but you might wake up with an empty wallet, no clothes and a gift that keeps on giving.

Until there is a playoff, or until UT needs to schedule big games to sell out the stadium, you might as well enjoy missionary.

I think it has something to do with playing really shitty overmatched teams at home.

The one thing that stands out to me is that all of those schools have very good coaches, though I would question Miss St. Anyways, it would make sense that when these teams travel, they bring the average down for their opponets home field and vice versa when that same opponent travels to their staduim.

Generally, I think procedure penalties are a product of coaching. It would be interesting if these same teams show up in the lowest overall procedural penalties over the last 5 seasons regardless of location.
