just got home. Far and away the best game experience at an SMU home game post DP. Vard was great, crowd was great and SMU played a helluva game for 2 and 1/2 quarters. That's what college football should be like.

Boulevard was rockin'. Stadium was packed and rockin'. A REAL sell out, and for sure majority SMU fans.

Thank God, I was really worried we'd be in the minority by a long shot.

It really was great. 2/3 SMU crowd. It was awesome. Very proud of the crowd. I think we sold some tickets for our last few games with that showing.


One thing I wondered after this: if you were a recruit, why would you even consider Baylor over SMU after that?
At no point in your rambling, incoherent response were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone in this room is now dumber for having listened to it. I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul.

It will be interesting to see what the crowd for the Tulsa game will be like.

I think when you add the Stadium Club might have been closer to 3/4th SMU than 2/3. 2/3 would be 12,000 fans which they didn't have. More like 8-9000. I was completely satisfied with SMU's attendance under the circumstances
