I'd like to beat them by as many points in hoops as they beat us in football. Unfortunately, LB doesn't play that way.
UNC better keep that Ram away from Peruna

lol...seriously? We got a big bag in hoops but wake me up when 3800+ SMU fans come to Ft Worth for a regular season basketball game. I got no problems or issues with your success in hoops and have low expectations for our team again but c'mon man...

Hopefully, we have a real MOB this season.

This. Has that been fixed yet?

I'll be there for sure. This time I will try not to drive over the median on University.....of course this time I hope I won't be contemplating a sobering loss.

yeah - tap the brakes there hoss on that 50% estimate. There is no way it is that high.

If we get 1,500 there it will be a huge showing for traveling basketball. I will not miss it.

What would be great is if the students had some fun with this. Highly possible. That could change it if it gets rolling. I am guessing that will be based on how things look at that point.

We had 500 plus at Tulsa last year. Reasonable to expect 1,000 at TCU.
Back off Warchild seriously.

I don't think tcu fans care enough about hoops to have a super bowl....no matter if it's smu or kentucky. Maybe the new facility will change this.

That was awesome. It really bothered the TU fans.

I hope the ticket office sends out an email for tickets to the game. How many tickets are typically allotted to visiting teams?

I don't think we had that many. I would have guessed more like 250 - but we were a really loud 250.....

SMU's football season will be over by this game and TCU will still be in the midst of football season. Am guessing that you are correct that TCU fans may not care all that much as they will be focused elsewhere. Baseball takes priority over hoops at TCU these days.

How many were showing up for games when Billy Tubbs was leading those Lee Nailon teams to the tournament?

when I was in school back when we thought we were good, the Mustang Maniacs had a couple of buses for the TCU game. It was actually fun.

Could be 50-50......750 ponyfans and 750 TCU fans.

They will be and should be focused on their football season when we play.

SMU fans can get as many seats as they want. Question is how many will go over there.
I went to the Tcu-KU game last season at that high school gym with a KU friend and KU fans probably had 40% of the seats. TCU folks aren't dialed into bball.
A decent showing of Mustangs fans would disrupt the arena.
