I'll sum it up like this. After a last second touchdown win against Auburn, the crowd eruption was so loud, it registered as a 6 on the Richter scale in the seismology department across campus (over a quarter mile away). Since then (1988), LSU has added almost 20,000 seats.

I can't find any number saying "6 on Richter scale." I may have made that up as a kid or something. I'll confirm if I find any differently.

Either way, you get the idea.

Oh it's cool man, there are a dozen different ways you could determine that fact. Here's what I took from wiki answers. BTW Autzen stadium is right here in Eugene.

Autzen's 59,000 strong make the Big House collectively sound like a pathetic whimper. It's louder than any place I've ever been, and that includes "The Swamp" at Florida, "The Shoe" in Columbus and "Death Valley" at Louisiana State. Autzen Stadium is where great teams go to die.

first of all the question is "what is the loudest stadium" not "which stadium had the loudest game" and the answer to that is LSU's Tiger Stadium. ask any college coach or player and they will tell you LSU is absolutely the loudest stadium. this is the only place every other school is scared to go to! so why everyone talks about that one game there stadium had LSU is like that EVERY week. and if you want to talk about a single game you need to talk about Oct. 8, 1988 at LSU when Tommy Hodson threw a game winning pass to Edddie Fuller, and the crowd was so loud and football drunk it registered on the richter scale! thats right football nation LSU fans created a earthquake!


Actually on the contrary, Husky Stadium in Seattle recorded the loudest db level in College football history in a game against Nebraska in 1991, the year the University of Washington won the National Championship.....

"During televised games, it has become so loud that the cameras shake.[7] During the 1992 night game against the Nebraska Cornhuskers, ESPN measured the noise level at 135 decibels, well above the threshold of pain). This was the highest decibel level ever recorded for a college football stadium."

Autzen Stadium in Eugene is the second highest ever recorded at a Ducks game at 127 db.... Note: There are comments associated with this question. See the discussion page to add to the conversation
