OFFICIAL: SMU vs PITT Score & Attendance Predictions

[ALEX LIFESON]

Mercy, biggest game for SMU and Pitt in decades. Pitt is 7-0 for the first time since 1982, the season we beat Dan Marino and the Panthers, in the sleet & rain in the Cotton Bowl. This should be a frikin' war. Student tickets sold out in 17 minutes. Do what you have to do, no excuses will be allowed... get your azzez inside Ford Stadium. Name your score, announced attendance and actual butts inside the stadium.

34K somehow in there...

SMU finds a way, with heroic defensive stands in inclement weather....and a late rushing touchdown.
Flashback? I think not...

Ponies 20
Da Pitts 17

Speaking of attendance at Homecoming, poor little Froggy fans had other thing to do on Saturday, apparently

Going to be a wet night at Ford.

Hoping we are able to fill things up still.

Give me Ponies by 7.

SMU wins.

I think our offense wakes up after a two week slumber, but so does Pitt. Sellout crowd unfortunately will witness a Pitt win 49-35. I'll keep picking the opponents since I'm always wrong.

Must have been a solid group of red to the right of that pic at the Carter. The visiting team tickets are at the top home deck. I suspect Tech didn't bring its band. This was circled as TCU's biggest home game of the year with the highest ticket prices. It's a late arriving crowd but for 2:30 there's no excuse except little league games.

There's a lot of demand for this Pitt game with both teams ranked. There will need to be quite a few more Pony fans to fill in for the FSU fans that filled much of the north endzone. This is a true test of the growth of the fanbase. I expect a stated sell out by game time and all but 1K butts in seats.

Pretty sure the froggies were limiting ticket sales to this game (ie only part of multiple game package and/or limiting sales to CC with tech zip codes) as they have in the past, specifically for tech games.

Official sellout, missing about 2k across upper decks for butts in seats to also be full.

Mustangs hold on to win another close hard fought, but less sloppy, game 31 to 30 over Pitt. I only thinks it's this close as we are dealing with so many offensive injuries.

How the hell do we run out of student seating?? Shouldn’t be a cap, start throwing them in that sparsely populated end zone section or something
