Are any posters from the greater Houston area planning on attending the game? Besides a decent shot at seeing a SMU road win, it will be a chance to check out the new Tudor Fieldhouse.

I will be there along with a group of 4 or 5 others (although one of them is an Owl).

City Council weighs plan to keep cars off lawns

Nettled by neighbors who clutter up their front yards with parked vehicles? You could work to outlaw this practice in your Houston neighborhood if the City Council approves a yard-parking ordinance on Wednesday's agenda.

The proposed law would allow civic associations to apply for the prohibition, or for 60 percent of residents to apply by petition. City officials developed this “opt-inâ€

That is really not completely true. With the Crum Center, there are new locker and weight rooms and a million dollar video scoreboard, and a new floor....Those are all the things a recruit cares about. Sure, it will be nice when they do the last phase and widen the concourse and add bathrooms and concession stands, but all the renovations a recruit cares about should be done.

Moody is a great venue to watch a College Basketball game

Do you think that a sports bar would be showing this tonight?

If so, where?
Thanks

I'm going to watch it and the Spurs/Lakers tonight at Pluckers. They usually will show whatever game you want to watch on tv. It's a little crowded on Wednesday nights because of trivia though.

Any sports bar worth its salt should be able to get this, you will probably have to request it though.

I always went to the Fox and Hound to watch CSTV games back before my cable system had them.

It is a light sports night tonight, DFW/Texas wise, Mavs on at 7:30 and Texas A@M and Baylor at 8:30pm so you should have no problem getting one TV carved out for SMU

Just show up to your favorite sports bar and tell em to put it on. Always helps to be armed with the right info....Tell them it is on Channel 613 on Directv and Channel 152 on the DISH network, depending on which one they have. This saves time with them fumbling around looking for it.

Have fun!

Would you be more excited if we were favored or if Rice were favored by a greater margin? Not sure how Rice being favored by 1 at home makes you un-excited to watch the game.

Hey guys, I got a question. I'm planning on watching the game tonight. I'm back home in Kuwait for the break so I can't watch it on TV. I'm planning to pay the 10 bucks to watch it pay-per-view online. However, my internet speed is 512kb. Anyone know if it the picture will be uninterrupted as it is live streaming? Thanks!

This is going to be a game played by two really bad teams, each of whom has a decent player or two on each roster.

I'm sure it will be a contest played before dozens and dozens. Will I watch it? Tune in at 7 and see.
