Restrictions surrounding the COVID-19 pandemic made for a very different college football experience during the 2020 season.
One of the biggest changes was reduced capacity in stadiums, which are usually filled to capacity for teams like LSU.
The last time LSU played in front of a full crowd with no attendance restrictions was in its national championship matchup against the Clemson Tigers in Mercedes-Benz Superdome.
But things will be getting back to normal when LSU opens the season on the road against the UCLA Bruins in Rose Bowl Stadium.

UCLA announced earlier this week that Rose Bowl Stadium and additional UCLA athletic outdoor events would be at full seating capacity for the upcoming season.
The stadium seats 90,888 fans.

Such a move does a lot for the atmosphere — something college football is so well known for.
Homefield advantage is back, folks.
