Thinking of heading to Memphis for the game and wonder if any of you know which is the section behind the bench. Not that I will ever be able to afford tickets there, but just wondering. Also, any advice on the best place to get tickets..stubhub?

Last year I begged the folks in the AD office and eventually got a ticket behind the bench next to Mr Miller. Worth a few emails if you are a MC donor.

Here's a link to a seating chart
http://www.tickpick.com/fedex-forum-seating-chart/Attendance for Tiger games has really fallen off this year, with the turnstile count substantively less the announced crowd, meaning people aren't using their season tickets and the secondary market has plenty of inventory.
You should be able to pick up tickets at face value, or maybe less for the the cheap seats, on the street before the game. Last year I got tickets in the SMU section and ended up trading them and $ for a seat in the Memphis faculty section. This year I'm taking it to the streets.

The visitor bench was on the 'right' from behind.

The nose bleed section where SMU fans were allocated tickets last year is empty this year. If the Tigers lose another game or two there will be a glut of seats available.
Of late announced attendance has been around 14,000 in an 18,000 seat arena, with the actual count less.

I think you have to donate in the Smusic level to get behind the bench. I could not tell if the ball went in the basket from where we sat last time. You were in the same area as me, Ponyte, Arkpony, et al, weren't you Terry?
I guess the big arenas are great for the bottom line if you can sell the tickets but I sure enjoy the intimacy of Moody. That is if I can ever get there again.

Yep. I was way up there with you all last year. Would love to get a bit closer this year.
