Ford Stadium seating questions

I've got a couple of seats in the endzone area...Section 110. Is that bench seating or benchback seating?

If you've got a bench seat, does SMU allow you to bring in your own stadium seat?

Re: Baylor and TCU

Only problem with that gigantic IF, is Baylor, A&M and TCU. They are not our peers, they have left us behind, need to re-focus on reality and achievable goals.

Is the new coach going to come in telling the world that he's going to beat Baylor, TCU & A&M and return SMU back to the top of the ...

Re: God is not a Mustang

I am a Methodist who attended Baylor undergrad and SMU for grad school.

orguy's comments about Baylor are off-base, IMO...the school is still somewhat evangelical but had a huge internal fight back in the mid-90s when the Southern Baptist Convention went in a more fundamental direction. Baylor ...

SMU Football: Any quick fixes or is this a total teardown?

As it's been mentioned before, I went to BU undergrad (saw a lot of bad football 1996-2009) and went to SMU for grad school. I've seen all or part of the 3 games so far this year. I think the talent level is down a bit over what we had 3-4 years ago, but it's hard to tell to what degree.

Re: Props to Baylor

I don't recall the budget being sliced for the stadium. It was originally a $250 million project, then it was referred to as $260 mil, and now $266 mil. As with any project there are some minor, cosmetic differences between the original sketches and the final product. The bridge was redesigned early ...

Re: Student falls to death at new UH stadium

It's tragic, but there are 3 major stadium projects going on in Texas right now and there has been a death at each of them. At A&M, a worker fell off the back of the stands in one of the endzones and lost his life.

At Baylor, a worker who was strapped to a lift and was working underneath the ...

Re: Missing Mustang Mania Poster - Lakewood 1st and 10

Thanks ponyte, I would obviously be interested in a copy of the poster I had stolen.

cutter, I remember the topic coming up several years ago, but I believe I had already given the poster to 1st and 10 to display. I also didn't expect an SMU fan to steal the poster.

Re: We need Baylor to lose tonight!

As a degree holder from both Baylor and SMU...I think it's great that SMU is making a run and is going to NYC. Might as well win it all. It's not the NCAA, but it's like a bowl game in football...you get to keep playing, keep practicing and that can only help for the next season...

Since Baylor is ...

Re: NIT is A Good Fit for Us

I thought that SMU was in, and at worst would get one of the play-in games. No doubt the loss to UH hurt.

That being said, there is no reason SMU can't go deep into the NIT, if not win the whole thing. It's like a bowl game for football...you get to keep practicing and keep playing which pays big ...
