June Jones had to answer qs about it afte the game. It was noticed by the players.

GO TO THE [deleted] GAME!!! STAY TO WATCH IT. GO TO YOUR FRAT/SORO HOUSE AFTER THE GAME.

P-A-T-H-E-T-I-C. WE ARE FINALLY GETTING SOME NATIONAL RESPECT, BUT OUR CROWDS KEEP US BACK.

wait. where were you?

I live 1300 miles away . If i lived there I would be at every game. I make good money, but not enought to attend every SMU home game. i go to Marshall. i go to Navy. I go to ECU. Went to homecoming last year against UH and plan on attending our bowl this year along with a home game, likely against Tulane for homecoming.

I wish I could be there every game guys. I wish I could find 3000 homeless people here in DC and shuttle them to ford with promises of free booze and corn dogs...

I don't think they serve corn dogs at Ford Stadium. You can get chips though.[/quote]
Texas de Brazil in the club today. Very good.

Rutgers versus navy had 41k

Annapolis is only a couple of hours from Rutgers. And has lots of alumni up and down the east coast.

UConn/S. Florida had over 37,000.

Cupcakes a little anticlimactic though

Yes. This was disappointing. Clearly not top 25 in this.

what are everyone's thoughts about where to get our missing attendance from?

can we gain more from non-SMU fans or from "disenfranchised" SMU alum or fans?

my thought is still that it'd hard to sell an outsider on SMU, because of the rich-kids stereotype and cheating stigma. We need to concentrate on the former students and fans. I know of only a few season ticket holders from my 94 graduating class. More PEER pressure is needed.

If we are ranked we better ADVERTISE.

Advertising sold out the TCU game with 80% SMU fans.

students who are hot can walk over to the west side and sit in the shade. also wearing white helps.
i wore red in the shade and even i felt no heat distress. i did pass out a couple of times though.

Even the cute ones are allowed on the west side, hot is a plus but not required.

I also hate that the tv cameras face the east side of the stadium, We almost always fill the west side of the stadium. If that got shown on tv at least people would think people go to the games
