Sadly we've never officially sold out Apogee for any game. While it's much much different and better now than when I was in Denton a decade ago the apathy is unbelievably there and it doesn't help that with the exception of 1 season (2013) we've been so so awful and even that is an understatement ...

Looks like GA tickets go for $12/each. Buy those and you can probably sit right at or very near the SMU section if it's all full.

If you want to save money and try to eliminate any ridiculous fees set out by TM I'd just get GA tickets on game day and be done with it. You'll need to park across the highway where Fouts is but there's a walkway now so the walk isn't bad at all really

As far as attendance I'd be very happy if ...

There will probably be around 4k SMU folks there

4K would be shocking. Dallas folk don't like going to Denton. There were no more than 300 for the June Jones firing two years ago.

I am sticking with 1,200 and will be pleasantly surprised with any more.

I was surprised to see how very little ...

I can assure it's just a select few just like there's just a select few SMU people that fit the description of how some UNT people view SMU.

We should not be going after the same level of recruit that UNT is going after. We should be going after recruits that are a notch higher.

I agree that all schools should go after recruits that are probably higher level but the reality is the success rate in getting them will be very low. Go ...

The programs are not on equal level....quit trolling.[/quote]

Not sure what your definition of trolling is. Our schools are playing each other this week and I can only speak for myself that I've been very civil and wish you guys nothing but the best except for when playing NT.

And you ...

Of course games like these can sway the minds of 16-18 year olds. Recruiting can matter especially when both schools are on the same or similar boat.

This series won't get cancelled. TCU will be dropping us in the future so we need a local school

I don't see your logic here. TCU wouldn't drop a game they feel is an easy win, that still draws interest with their fan base. I would understand the logic if they were still in the MWC when they ...

both schools can benefit from playing each other.

Or not. You sound like the guy that runs the Mean a Green website. SMU gets nothing out of playing you...other than maybe a W.

I'm definitely not the guy that runs the MG website. What is your rationale in thinking that there is no benefit in ...

It's really only a select few that hate you guys and no SMU hasn't really done anything to UNT.

Are we rivals? I would say no. Could this develop into a true rivalry? Yes I think so. I think both schools need to forget the past and realize that both schools can benefit from playing each other. Let's face it this isn't the old SWC days and both schools regularly playing each other will generate ...

Greetings. For those that live in the area I encourage all of you to come up to Apogee on Saturday. I think despite how poorly both teams played last week it should be a fine game. Come out and meet us and even tailgate with us. It's a cool little scene up there and I assure you food and alcohol ...

UTSA is a feisty team and they play with attitude. Coker brought some of that "U" mentality with him. They gave us a thumping last week in Denton and not only do they have solid coaching but a good QB that's leading them. They certainly aren't pushovers. I have to think reality will set in for them ...

All good and thank you. Looking forward to the head to head series with you guys starting next season.
