The place was hardcore loud and those recruits got, with Fran and staff, what the Loudhouse can really be about. My son (20 years old) was amazed at how loud it was. That is how long it's been.
About effin time!!
 
I have barely a voice and ears are ringing. The fans really did a great thing today. That was a wild feral crowd that made a difference. The players fed off it and it was big time football vibes. Good to see we still got the juice
 
Sounded good... really good. Announcers noted the noise multiple times...
They need to put a decibel meter up. I've measured the top 10 loudest stadiums in the Dome, with a proper meter. (Skip the apps, phones mics can't handle the sound pressure)

Glad it was LOUD for recruits. There is no place like Dome!

They put it up at one point, not sure if it was accurate.

It was loud though, my ears hurt and I left my concert plugs at home.

Tremendous.

Yeah, that meter they put up on the screen is phony. If not, we shattered the record for loudest crowd (Seattle or Arrowhead?). There's no way we hit 139 db, which is what it showed.
But, it was damn loud. I put ear plugs in near the end of the 3rd because my ears were starting to hurt.
The energy just kept building after we tied it up, so that the entire 4th quarter it seemed we were on our feet almost every play. The Grant fumble return was right up there with the loudest Dome plays I've ever been present for (includes all of 1987, sold out Miami in 1994).
Even the Wave made it fully around 4 times.

The Grant fumble was far and away the loudest I've ever heard it.

The wave in a tie game though was embarrassing.
 
Obviously there hasn't been much to cheer about for the past 25 years. Resulting in depleted new younger fans that haven't seen the program have success. And older fans who have seen good times, but have been worn down over all the L's.

It was so great to see the fans and Dome have some juice again today, helping the team with the noise. But honestly I feel the Dome can be/get even better, to become much more intimidating. This is not to be critical of today's atmosphere, it was great to see. My hope if Coach Fran can continue to build SU football into a consistent top 10/15 program will be the Loud House turns into the football version of Cameron Indoor for Duke.

We'll never be the massive SEC 90-100K stadiums with an unbelievable atmosphere. But like Cameron, a small building can rock to become a very intimidating place to play. Anyway, just my dream vision one day. Great win today!

This sounds insane but the wave kept the energy up during a long TV timeout. I usually think it’s corny but it was fun as hell yesterday and contributed to the atmosphere.
