Despite not having the ability to host a full stadium crowd to start the season, it appears The Swamp will still be an intimidating place to play this season.

Florida AD Scott Stricklin gave fans a preview of what they can expect when the Gators host South Carolina during the second weekend of the SEC season on Saturday, Sept. 3 when the Gamecocks travel to Gainesville.

While only around 17,000 fans — which is 20 percent capacity of Ben Hill Griffin Stadium — will be in attendance due to local restrictions on public gatherings, the pumped-in crowd noise Florida plans to use still makes for a loud scene in The Swamp.

Now, on top of the pumped-in crowd noise, add in another 17,000 screaming fans and you’ll have an idea of just how unfriendly The Swamp will continue to be for opposing teams this season.

Check out the video below to get an idea of how loud the pumped-in crowd noise at Florida will be courtesy of Scott Stricklin:
