Was told by multiple people that went to the game that South Carolina's atmosphere was surprisingly as good or better than anyone in the SEC.

Some things they said that stood out, that I'd love for any of you that went to verify....

1) lights and music were phenomenal and there was rarely any "dead air"
2) No advertisements at every stoppage of play
3) No "please direct your attention to midfield as we celebrate the Starkville spelling bee champs" Bull shit at every stoppage
4) No having to instruct dumb ass fans how to properly do a maroon/white (Game/Cocks) chant. The fans just KNOW bc they were ALL as engaged and rowdy as the student section.

Was told it was incredible, and put ours to shame, despite only 5,000 more in the student body and a slightly bigger stadium. Made me disappointed bc it confirmed what I knew about our atmosphere sucking...but gives me hope that we can strive for it.

If we are going to be a smaller fish in this conference, we have GOT to do the little things right to separate ourselves where our recruiting and budget can't. Atmosphere should be a top priority, and we currently suck at it.
