LES experience needs one change: we need the ROC to stop booing the opponent

Maybe...I mean, I get that. Doesn't every home team boo the opposing team entry/lineup?

Preppy

No, some take pride in not booing. Texas A&M hisses.

It’s part of the fun. IMO it’s done with good nature. We’re nice but not a bunch of DC’s

Always thought of it as more than banter, but that's a fair take.

"Back in the day" students held up newspapers (maybe just for basketball?) to show indifference.

Preppy

10/23/24 2:03pm

That was fun, then the student section leadership determined it was unkind so

I actually really liked it when the student section would say hi as the individual was announced

Yeah! No horns down t-shirts either! That not classy. That’s not us!

Nah. That doesn't need to change.

The opposite. Texas fans proved this week that they can influence bad calls. We need the ROC to throw things at the refs

Let's be quiet when the opposing team is on offense as well. Let's keep looking

"...helful, friendly, courteous, kind..."

Maybe we should let the other team score first every game to be nice, too!

I like where you're coming from, but booing an opposing team doesn't hurt any

Not classy to get loud on 3rd downs.

This is not an elementary school talent show. It's high-level D-1 football.

Let's also cheer when the other team scores

You always boo the villian...it is less about sportsmanship and more about the buildup to the contest.

The thing about booing is it just spurs the opposing teams on. It's not like

Nah, booing is just fine. It isn't excessive or rude. It is 100% ok.

A sarcastic/condescending golf clap maybe? 🤷‍♂️

That would be hilarious. A slow sarcastic clap by the whole stadium in unison!

I think we should also, to be kind, classy, and savvy, cheer the other team when

What's next? Paying for their tickets and offical apologies for any unkindness

Tio

I agree. Silence is the most effective. A careless sound, like we don't even recognize they took the field.

Are you the guy that sits in front of me that told my kids to be more classy?

I've watched it every single game. South endzone.

Ive booed the players as they run out. Which is what should happen in my opinio

Stucoug83

10/23/24 5:07pm

To clarify, they get booed as they come down to the endzone to pray. Some boos
