biggest since Tech in the PB v Leach confrontation after the game.

Kudos to the students. I think that was the quickest mass exodus I've ever seen. Vanished. Vanished!

Thank you TCU and Tx State for helping us with our average. 30k + 22k with four more to go. We only need 9300 or so each of the remaining 4 games to average 15k. Yeah!

Got that in the bag man. We just party on the Boulevard and sweep them in for game time.

OK, SMU has fans and loyal fans at that. What we need is wins to build the fan base. Duh.

'JJ will do this in time. He is a real coach with real Asst coaches.
SMU is a baby at playing by the NCAA rules. It will take time.

Yes, I HATE games like today.

the only highlite of the Nite-I believe the largest crowd for a non-state school in what 20 years?

we will know that SMU is "back" when we can draw those kind of numbers for CUSA games or for any visitor we bring in.

I look forward to the day TCU games mean an "overflow" crowd with people on the south end zone lawn.

It was the best atmosphere at gametime I've ever seen at Ford. You could feel the excitement and tension -- everything you want in college football.

And then after 6 minutes, it was over.

I hate that. Did not get to change ends before the excitement was GONE.

We have to get better.

Yeah, Robinson fumbled the ball went to the sidelines laughing. Don't know what was so funny except that it was obvious that any chance we had to play a competitive game was lost right there!

You should never have a smile on your face much less laugh right after a game changing play for the other team. That is where Willis's passion really helped. You could see he was frustrated when things like that happened to him and he would try to not let it happen the next time.

Indeed, Frog fans certainly support their

team at home and on the road.

by **Pony81** » Sun Sep 21, 2008 12:28 pm

We average 15,000 fans going forward.

You guys play on the road? What road? Interstate 30? Is that why I've heard horror stories about that road being shut down last night?

You might want to be careful about playing on the road. You could end up like this poor guy:

I was impressed with crowd-I thought we had a shot at 30,000 before the game. TCU had a nice crowd and there were a lot of parents who won't be there other weeks but there are about 8,000 new fans at least interested to give the football program a look. Unfortunately, as has often been the case we were non-competitive. Sell the Boulevard.

Passion & Skills, something our new QB doesn't have. BLM is been the other teams best player in every game except TX State.
