I would love to see 100k fans yelling at the top of their lungs someday. That would completely deafen the opposing team... and make Neyland Stadium the loudest in all of college football. One can dream... |

| Don't think we are going to play the stadium. More worried about the team. You need a smaller stadium it helps for a home field advantage. |

And 127.2 decibels is nothing to lightly dismiss. That's louder than a Boeing 747 at take-off--for the best part of three hours in a tight contest since we are on defense more than most.
Why not just come and hear for yourself in 2013?
It's the proximity of the fans to the field that is killer. It sounds as if they are literally on top of you and the sound reverberates from the artificial turf into the canopy and back. The entire stadium is dug into a earthen hillock. There are no energy sapping features like repeated open air tunnels or other gaps. It's a sunken bowl of concrete sunk into the earth that the crowd enters down into from the rim.
