Definitely a great game. You guys are an awesome team and for the conference as a whole, I hope you kick some serious (you know what) in the tourney. Best of luck in the weeks ahead...

A couple of hundred fans sitting in section F, wearing your team colors helps too, something most SMU fans have NEVER understood. In a city like Dallas, we can play a school that I have never heard of, and they will have alums at the game. That's what happens when you live in a city like Dallas, career opportunities are here.

If we had a TOP 10 team, we might also get this type of attendance (or more) on the road. (For you skeptics, remember the 2,000+ fans that showed up in Houston for the last game of the year with Rice!) If Memphis had our record, it would be interesting to see whether or not this many fans would have showed. I don't think I will hold my breath because I doubt if a third would have showed.
Posted: Sun Mar 04, 2007 10:23 amI remember going to see SMU play Baylor in the old Heart of Texas Coliseum, it was in the mid 80's and we were in the top 10. There couldn't have been more than 30 SMU fans there.
Posted: Sun Mar 04, 2007 10:52 amThey don't show up for football games so it's due to the #6 ranking. UTEP fans are the best in our side of C-USA. Didn't they have as many fans at Moody as Memphis? And they're having a below average season. It was good to see the Memphis fans because it adds to the competitive spirit.
