Could we (finally?) see the benefit a non-Greek Mob? Maybe these are the kinds of kids that don't jet off to Padre. Of course, we need ALL the students there not just the Mob. But hopefully at least the Mob will be there in full force.

i think when the Mob works it is when it is a mostly greek mob, not the reverse.

Might be time for some pledge trainers to let their pledges know they need to change their plans and be at this game.

that may be one of the few benefits. Greek presence will be very small this game

Once again, we show our institutional intellect by choosing white, which is not an SMU color, in freaking winter!!! With zero possibility of Tulsa showing up in red. :roll:

Only if they have white shirts waiting for fans on the seats will this look good, like Louisville last year. Short of that, it's not gonna work. My 6 will wear white and hope for some good apparel choices from others.

I don't believe a whole lotta thought goes into stuff like this. How can "they" continually screw this up?

In all honesty, for all of the color outs SMU attempts, white outs do seem to work the best.

I really don't understand why SMU fans struggle so much with the request to wear a certain color. The Louisville game last year was really annoying to me because of the people that refused to put on the free t-shirt that was passed out to everyone.

This is the biggest game we have had since 1998, so quit complaining and frickin wear WHITE!

Got an email today and it noted free senior day tshirts with SMU ID. Usually they just have a checklist with MOB members for all the giveaways, but I'm guessing athletics staff anticipated more general students attending this game.

On a side note, I hope Larry wears all black again like it's a funeral(for Tulsa)

I agree wholeheartedly. You would think SMU fans would have red, white, and blue options available for both warm and cold weather situations.
