Of course, the largest crowd of the season.
Was listening to the post-game show on the way back, and Rich and Allen were saying they thought more people would show up...
Big ups to the student section for a strong turnout and the red out.

Loudest game of the year by far. If we can keep the momentum going, SMU basketball might become fun again.

great moody atmosphere nonetheless. our 3500 really erupted when given the chance. not sure i expected more fans, the game wasnt marketed outside of Harry, memphis was not top 25, it was an afternoon game and we had a losing record going in.

Harry is King. Great job everyone. Sounded like a home court

Great atmosphere! I was there with the family. Didn't the A&M game draw more fans? I guess you're referring to SMU fans. The students created an electric atmosphere. It's great that they can stand so close to the floor. The band was also terrific. This is something to build upon and the free t-shirts, posters, etc. help provide pride and awareness for the rest of the season. I know UH will have its hands full and UTEP should be a great atmosphere.

It was a great college crowd and great college game to watch...that shows that we really don't need a full house to make a difference, as 4,000 was loud and respectable. It was fun!

Great job Harry, keep it up man, so nice to see Red and non Greek shirts on the students.
Hopefully the students had a good time and will show up again.

I appreciate the shout-outs, but many people helped set this up as well.

As I said earlier this week, this was an audition for the team for the rest of the season. I think by winning will draw more students/fans to the games, ESPECIALLY if we win the next two. That's a 6 game streak!
