Yep - we do. But we don’t have a PA announcer screaming as well - some

encouragement for the home team is great but if you’ve traveled around the country to get a wide perspective and then to RES you’d see the glaring difference

They also have microphones on the student section and put that on the speakers

Pathetic

Why doesn’t every school do this?

Because it’s pathetic

Question is why does Utah do it...they don't need to

Not enough is made of the "manufactured noise." Should be illegal

UCF was kind of like that with the loud speakers - only it wasn't the PA guy,

It was SOOOO annoying. So small time

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

I can’t believe it’s true, that they really make fake crowd noise. That is so

Polecat

Exactly. It was incredulous. Ask anyone who was there. Ask the band members.

Borg

I was sitting in the west stands near the speakers. I could hear the students

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

Replays were terrible. I thought the flags would be cool but didn’t end up

Replays were the worst I have seen. Rarely showed them. Not sure why they have

What about their Big Boy entrance?

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

I was going to say the same thing. It was awful in Vegas.

So you left early because you thought BYU was going to lose huh? Sucks to be you

OKchief

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

Borg

Nov 11, 6:23pm

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

Borg

Nov 11, 6:29pm

PA guy tries to mess with Ferrin by saying his name and 44 yard field goal try

BR7238

Totally agree. The PA guy drove me nuts. BYU's is so

I'm pretty sure we let the music rip in LES the same way.

I don’t think so. I don’t remember thinking ”oh man, they shouldn’t do that “

Borg

LES does have mics on the band but not the crowd noise

Isn’t the announcer Tim Hughes from the KSL morning broadcasts?

I thought the same exact thing. He should be a high school PA announcer. Tacky

We do that at every home game. The band thunders right up to moments before the
