Nick Saban Alleges Texas A&M Pipes In Crowd Noise at Kyle Field Ahead of CFP Home Game

NCAA rules bar artificial noise during live play, with no public evidence or sanctions disclosed.

Overview

  • Saban made the claim on The Pat McAfee Show and said he previously complained to the SEC about Kyle Field’s volume.
  • He described the environment as a major defensive aid for the Aggies, saying visiting offenses struggle to communicate.
  • Texas A&M hosts Miami in a first-round College Football Playoff game this weekend, heightening attention on the allegation.
  • Kyle Field holds 102,733 fans and the Aggies’ 12th Man reputation is often cited as a natural source of extreme noise.
  • Similar claims surfaced earlier this season from Ohio State safety Caleb Downs, yet programs rarely face penalties because proving violations is difficult.
