Both guys predict us in the New Orleans Bowl in a rematch against Arkansas State.

I know it is a bowl game but already went to NO once this year.

How many people from SMU were at the Tulane game?

I would think many more would make the trip for a Bowl Game!

by **smupony94** » Wed Oct 25, 2006 3:28 pm

I was there and what seemed like 200 more SMU fans of course they sell beer at the game so I was seeing double.

by **SMU Football Blog** » Wed Oct 25, 2006 3:52 pm

There were more than 200.

I was there-- and I was NOT drunk (during the game)

What's your point?

Are you waiting for the Rose Bowl to invite us? :roll:

If you know more fans were in attendance then thank you. The SMU side was empty

Including the band, there were at least 500 people in the Mustang sections (3 of them) at the Tulane game. I actually thought it was pretty good compared to the number of people Tulane, itself, actually brought out.

our best bowl would be Ft. Worth...we'd have some attendance then

I just hope we're 7-5 or better.

6-6 is not "bowl eligible" for us.

If you think that 6-6 is not "bowl eligible" for us, then you are wrong considering the fact that we have not gone .500 or better in nearly a decade. 6-6 is bowl eligible for us.

6-6 is bowl eligible, if UAB and ECU don't go 6-6. Then, we have to hope that our attendance average hides behind our 22 year absence.

Still..win 2 of 4, 3 at home. Beat UAB and they are almost done. ECU needs to go 3-2 with 4 games on the road with @Southern Miss and @NC State still ahead.

by **mr. pony** » Thu Oct 26, 2006 7:43 pm

Nope. Not with dead last attendance in C-USA.

by **J.T.supporta** » Thu Oct 26, 2006 8:02 pm

What SMU needs to do is start counting everyone on the field as a person who "attended" the game. That would added almost 300 people to the attendance count.

I am sure that Tuesdays game will increase the average attendance and it will get better from there once we beat UAB.
