Bama game noise level

[Stacmot]

I’m curious to hear from the people that were at the game how did it compare to some of our other big games we’ve had at Neyland. Was it the loudest it’s ever been or comparable? It sure was electric watching it on tv

I was at game- id say it was louder than 2016 and 2022 Florida but not 2015 Oklahoma for the most part.

I saw in two different places where this was the loudest game ever recorded in Neyland. I’m pretty sure the article said it got up to 125 dB which shattered the Neyland Stadium record of 118 dB. The source was from TN Athletics so I’m taking it as being true. Fans were tweeting before the game that the noise level was sitting about 115 which is insane

What amazed me was not the peak loud, but the 4 hours of sustained loud.

I thought peak loud was 15 OU, 04 and 98 UF. The sustained was inspiring

Very hard to hear the Pride of the Southland Marching Band, I realize their numbers are down from time to time, but with a sustained roar of cheering, clapping and cheering running in the background during the pregame and the game itself made the music very hard to hear. Halftime wasn't too bad, particularly when the band members would turn toward your seats.

The color guard is small this year but the band is pretty big. The stadium was just that loud.

It was loud.So much joy and happiness,everybody hugging,high-fiveing,some crying ,two students sitting beside me took for for the field.I was there for the Florida game on 16 and the Alabama game in 82 but for me this was the best win ever.

I agree, but it is hard to compare as I was in a different section for this game vs the others you listed. The OU game just seemed louder to me.

That was i think the loudest Tennessee game ever

I was at every game mentioned so far in this thread.

The sustained level of noise in this game was the loudest I have heard Neyland. The peaks? It felt like 1998 Florida and 2015 Oklahoma were louder, but if so, not by much.

It was Neyland as it used to be…..a place you have to be scared to play in. It was loud during warm ups, I’m betting that’s what made the Bama players so anxious, knowing it’s only getting worse.

I’ve been at all the games mentioned here as well, and I am telling you this was the loudest, most intimidating place that any team would ever have to come and play! See the visual proof on the DB made earlier in the thread. Go vols let’s whip every team we ever play the rest of the year! Let’s be national champions!!

I gave my all for Tennessee on Saturday. So did over 100,000 of my best friends. That's why were just now able to speak again

 

[GreveHaller]

You must have not been at the 85 Sugar bowl. Loudest I’ve ever heard anywhere. I turned and blew my first note for pregame and could not hear any other instruments around me. Yes, it was dome assisted.

I was at the Oklahoma game in 15. Our seats were on the lower level. My ears were ringing. I was there Saturday too. Upper deck. I think Saturday was louder.

Of the 4 loudest games I've been to, in order, they are:

1.) 2022 Bama
2.) 2015 Oklahoma
3.) 2022 Florida
4.) 2015 Georgia

With 23 minutes left till kickoff, the Jumbotron decibel meter hit 116.9. Consistently around 112-114 during warmups, but got up to 116.9.

I’d like to know where they are actually measuring the noise level for what they were displaying on the Jumbotron. A lot of variables at play. I also don’t think we’ve been tracking it that long (and it would need to be consistent to how they are measuring it now). I don’t recall seeing any readings from ‘15 OU which was definitely louder than the 118 set during OM last year.

Clay Travis on his Outkick podcast stated that Neyland Stadium contained the loudest crowd noise he's ever heard.and he's been to dozens and dozens of football games.

Wasn't there Saturday but 15 Oklahoma was the loudest game I've ever been too. Literally couldn't talk for 4 days and my throat was in some serious pain lol. If yall had Neyland louder Saturday than 15 Oklahoma, than props! I'm jealous either way
