Yes, I was at the 15 Oklahoma game. We lost, like we have most of our big time home games the past 20 years. I was also at a number of home games in the early 70s when the crowd made a difference and we won most of our big time home games
The 2016 win over Florida wasn’t fan assisted in my opinion. After Florida jumped to their lead they stopped throwing deep and did put us away. When we finally scored a TD, seems like mid 3rd qtr ish, it brought the crowd back into the game, but the real work was from the players.
I’m a huge advocate for crowd noise. Not only does it hinder communication for the opposing team, but can help motivate our guys to go make the play. Sometimes an adrenaline burst is all that is needed to get the last stop that is needed for a win. Getting loud at away games is more for the adrenaline rush for our players than for disruption reasons.
