I had mentioned this in another thread. The student seating in New Moody is a little weird. Its the areas highlighted in red in the photo. It's a bit spread out instead of being packed together.
Edit- I don't know how to post photos. This is the URL

Yes, very odd. I get the overflow upstairs; they did that in the 90's, too. But why alternate? And with whom?

In like the upper level section bc it will wake everyone up up there but what's up with not putting students behind the visiting team?

I really hope they aren't putting opposing fans in 113.
That would be very unwise.....

Right, it almost seems irresponsible and potentially dangerous.

I thought I heard in the old league, CUSA, that it was illegal to sit students behind the visiting bench and that it was reserved for their fans. I would assume that whatever they don't sell from their ticket allotment could be sold to SMU fans, we've just never had that demand yet.......

113 seems logical to me. Right behind their bench. Isn't that how is was in Moody recently? We used to have our students behind the visitors in my day but they did away with that.

The new Moody is layed out a little differently, but visitors were mostly put in 213.

Why the hell do you break up the student section? Unless its a young alumni section or something, I'm losing more and more faith in Rick harts competence....
*if its a rules thing, then I get it, but still.....

One of the best BB games I ever attended was one row behind Guy Lewis during PSJ days.
During early '80's in old SWC days, entire lower bowl was filled to capacity with students standing in the corners during games against UT, Ark, UH. Our student enrollment is now slightly higher. What happens if student involvement reaches those levels?

Loved it when Abe Lemmons came to town with Pan Am. He would jaw back and forth with us.
