I’m just glad BYU doesn’t turn the stadium into a stupid light show every time

The noise is artificial for sure. They also mic up the band.

They put mics on the band and crank that up too. PA guy:“A gain of ONLY 2 yards”

We've followed BYU all over the country and the LES game experience is the best.

They were lame in Vegas

Yep. Bush league. I have no interest in going back.

Halftime was cool with a joint effort with both bands playing patriotic songs
