I know it's only Tuesday, but it doesn't even feel like they are playing a game at Ford Stadium this Saturday. Is this one of those games that SMU tries to hijack every school bus back to Ford?

it really has been much more than any college student could expect to endure to have to suffer through your third whole year of losing. How do you do it?

Well DUH :!:

I expect that's why my estimated crowd of 50,000 at a gameday
tailgate turns into 12,000 or less at the game against CUSA private
schools.

Can't navigate the 1/4 mile walk into the stadium. :lol: :lol:

Or maybe still want to get to the point that they can't at
gametime. :cry:

if we had free booze at tailgate, even just one beer we'd sell out every game and Student support would skyrocket. drowning our sorrows before losing is getting old

I shall be in attendance with Kool-Aid and Vodka on the 'vard.

I shall get to Ford before Kick-Off

I shall root for my school and players.

I shall call Bennet and idiot at least 3 plays during the game.

I shall wish the band well and applaud their performance. (Except for trumpeters on the roof.)

I shall not leave before the final whistle.

I shall cherish a victory or humble a loss.

I shall read and post on ponyfans.

I shall continue my loyalty to the Mustangs.

I shall continue to wait until next year.

Man, I'll be there. It's college football on a beautiful campus with a beautiful stadium and tailgating opportunities aplenty.

My son and I are flying up immediately after his baseball game and we will be there to witness it.

My son who is only 7 will also probably point out our stupid plays or say "idiots" more than 3 times. Personally, I hope to have drank enough with my fellow longtime suffering SMU fans that I will be numb to it by half time.

I don't normally advocate youth drinking, but you might want to mix in a couple of drops into your son's coke. I am not sure which is the greater parental abuse: letting your son drink or letting your son watch SMU football.
