    Just wondering if anyone knows how many fans in the stands we will have for game? I have seen estimates from 15k to 40k.

    Probably about 60-65% LSU fans

    I think we'll have about 2/3. There will be an advantage, but not much.

    Bama travels well. In the stadium, we will have the advantage but it won't be too noticeable on TV probably. Red stands out more than purple and gold. Our real advantage will be outside the Dome in the French Quarter for whatever that's worth.

    60-65% sounds right. Our advantage will be in crowd noise. Tiger fans are much louder. Our fans could be heard in BDS on Nov 5.
    The noise is our fans strength and will be a big help.

    No way to tell. Whoever has the most fans willing to spend that kind of cash on a ticket. Different class of fan goes to this game.

    Actual numbers I'd say 65% LSU. To the TV audiences eyes maybe as high as 60% Bama, since they all shake pom poms. To the TV audiences ear 80% LSU, since the Gumps are so busy shaking their pom poms the forget to actually make any noise.

    You need to make a call and get them boys right. With the talent they have it was disappointing to see them fall apart at the end. I had them at least in the top 3 at the end of their schedule.:thumb:
