The first of two titanic games for LSU is this week when Auburn comes to Death Valley.

It’s an atmosphere that ESPN host Scott Van Pelt said is the unquestioned best in sports. The atmosphere may not be quite as unique this week as say the Florida game, for example, because the game will begin in the afternoon, but the fourth quarter should be plenty interesting as the sun goes down.

Van Pelt narrated a hype video ahead of this week’s game with the one part that said, “When your moment comes. When your name is called. When time is running out and everything rests on your
shoulders … Will you crumble? Or will you rise?”

“It’s the blink of an eye, it’s the beat of a heart, it’s only a split second, but it’s all you need.”
