Malzahn confirms what we already know: The Swamp is louder than "Death Valley"

Gus Malzahn says The Swamp was louder than Death Valley


The way the Swamp is built in a sinkhole with the steep sides so close to the field, when our fans show up its a nightmare for the visitors.

you are correct. For the same reason the Rose Bowl and Mich. stadium can't be as loud as some of the lesser capacity stadiums.

With that said, when I saw the thread title I thought it was going to be what I mentioned to a friend of mine last nite. That Malzahn was finally making a QB change. They have only lost 2 tough road games. Don't get me wrong I think Nix is okay for a frosh and can be good, but Malzahn's high school sideways BS only goes if the run game is rolling and partly b/c he has a good and big threat at QB. Both Newton and their QB when they lost to the were excellent runners. Nix is okay as a scrambler or on deception runs, but in designed runs, AU has a QB on the pine they recruited who fits what Malzahn really likes to do.

You could tell in his post-game presser after the loss to us that the crowd was a giant factor... you could see it in his face. They looked fine in Death Valley

SQ and I were saying that during our game out there. It was definitely loud, but the Auburn game the week before was absolutely louder. Their north endzone doesn't have an upper deck, which probably helps some of the sound escape. There's nowhere for the sound to go but down at the Swamp.

I guess Gus is an okay guy.

It's three factors.

How close the stands are to the field.

The enclosure.

The pitch of the enclosure.

Maybe a fourth. How much your fans put into it.

We've got it all going.

Don't get it.

Don't get it.

Pat Dooley writes one sentence paragraphs.

It's his style.

It makes no sense and takes up way too much space on the screen.

But it's great for pretending you're having a bunch of mic drop moments back to back.

In reality it's just really corny and forced.

If I only knew you a short time, yes.

You're a born a$$hole. I've been dealing with your high-minded a$$holism for a decade.

Phuck off.

I actually have to agree with the emote.

My mistake.

What I should have said was your small mindedness.

This is the kind of thread we need to get through the week.
