Loudest On record at DV

Anyone know what the loudest recorded crowd noise is in Death Valley? Watching the Tennessee game-they said they have been up to 114 decimals(jet engine).

I've heard it was 127 and 131. I know it turns on my 'fight or flight,' reaction.

The 2005 Miami game was without a doubt the loudest on record at Death Valley. A friend of mine could not believe how much noise we generated. I could not hear for 24 hours afterwards.
Go Tigers!

There must not been anyone recording the decibel levels at that game. It was by far the loudest game I have attended an I have been to all the big games in the Valley.
Too bad Malik Zaire broke his ankle, I think the Tiger fans wanted a chance to show how loud Death Valley can get for him.

My vote, too! I worried the stadium might crack due to the noise. I've never been anywhere since, nor before, that even aproached it, and I'm 64 years old and have been to lots of games in lots of stadiums.

louder than that game. There was a concerted effort to be loud because Bowden had challenged the crowd beforehand to be loud.

2005 Miami was 126 dB and the loudest on record at the time

Supposedly the 2007 BC game where Kelly dropped the game winning TD got to 131, but Miami 2005 was the loudest noise I've ever heard in my life. It was so loud in the student section that it felt like my heart was vibrating.

Was the 131 recorded and how the heck can we be louder than an almighty sec stadium(Tennessee) that has 20,000 more seats? The audio from the Miami game is very impressive, but was there documentation on the level?

Stadium noise isn't necessarily proportional to stadium attendance. It would seem like a logical assumption that 100,000+ stadiums like those in Ann Arbor, Columbus, Happy Valley, and Knoxville would we louder.
The Big House has the most seats with regular crowds approaching 110,000, but with an almost non-existent tailgate atmosphere and a very low angle on the stands, Michigan is never mentioned as one of the loudest environments.
On the other end of the spectrum is Oregon's Autzen Stadium. Is is much smaller than most SEC traditional Big Ten stadiums or Death Valley, but it has often been cited as one of the loudest in college football. It's because of the shape and profile of the stadium that allows sounds waves to stay in the lower area and reverberate.
Death Valley is great for noise because of the steep North and South upper decks and the hill. The addition of the West EndZone made the stadium even louder when construction began.

I know the loudest it has officially been was in the mid-120s (124-127), at the 2013 FSU game. The loudest I attended as a student was 2013 Georgia - the stands in the student section were visibly vibrating and I couldn't hear for two weeks. I would've estimated upper 120s at the entrance.

Just found my old phone with a video of the whole entrance and remembered that after that game, my phone would never be able to record noise properly without massive distortion again.

The report, which says it uses real decibel levels for comparison is hard to argue with, but IMO, the Miami game at Death Valley was the measure we should be rated on. I was at both games, and no way, the Miami game wasn't the loudest ever.

it was already as loud as I had ever heard it. It was indescribably loud after we knew we were gonna get the ball back.
For anyone that ever tries to downplay homefield advantage or the importance of crowd noise, that 2005 Miami game proves how defense feeds off of the fans' emotion and noise.

It can bring an upsurge in the adrenalin level of anybody there, fans, team, coaches and even the TV viewers. Very special extra advantage for the home team, IMO.

Clemson owned the record for the loudest outdoor sporting event for 1 week. It was broken a week later by Oregon.

2007 BC is memorable for the moment Clemson needed to hold BC to win in the 4th. Matt Ryan's busted play long TD...(before the ball was snapped) was the moment of loudness.
