Alabama Vs. LSU: Inside Tiger Stadium

SB Nation’s And The Valley Shook says being in the crowd for Saturday’s LSU upset of Alabama was “like being inside a drum”:

The crowd was the kind that you have dreams in June about. Loud and unrelenting, with genuine hate for our opponent (and the refs....and some of the playcalling) and such joy at our successes. When Randle ran back that big pass on that unbelievably quick drive, the crowd exploded. It was the greatest single moment in Death Valley in years, better even than the missed FG in the Arkansas OT game last season. Overall, you have to go back to the epic ‘07 Florida game to find a better experience. This was the Death Valley that so much has been written about, “The Drum” that Bear Bryant talked about. I don’t know what 392,500 people would sound like, but I have to agree with Miles in saying that we had to have come close.
