It will be a good crowd, but casual ponyfans won't show. I would guess 27K with maybe 1.5K in red.

Greenie students and hipsters abound.

We just bought 3 tickets off of the North Texas website and there are tons of seats left. Section 201 is completely wide open. We bought in the lower bowl in shade with all the rest of the tickets in our row being open. Should be a fun time --Pony Up

I just checked their website, and you are correct, tons of seats left. I guess they're trying to create a little sense of urgency......#fakenews!

Stadium opener vs. Houston on 9/10/11 is still the most attended game in history. Around 25-27K? Only up by three at halftime, UH won by 25. Case Keenum's last year and Dan McCarney's first. Lance Dunbar also at UNT.

To make it more SMU related, that same week, the Ponies beat UTEP at home 28-17. JJ McDermott at QB and the great Zach Line at RB. Kyle Padron also ran in a TD.

"Stalled Brisket" is my Front runner for Newcomer of the year.

He/she has picked an awesome name for the PonyFans Board - Big expectations for this year on the choice of name alone.
