It was a bunch of crap, BUT they did not bug us once we got them in. We were pretty convinced they were going to kick us out once we started showing them, but they did not so that's good. Hopefully next game they wont give us grief about it on the way in.

SMU did a good job showing the fraternities on the big screen. A lot of our guys (and the girls around us) were really excited how much we got on the screen and were talking about how we need to come to the next game. Everyone came tonight because they offred "party points" 50 % attendance from chapters got us 3 points. It's that or we spend all day at the soup kitchen. If they want to fill the stadium they need to make it 1 point every game for 75 % attendance. That way if fraternities attend every home game of the season they will basically cover all the points they need for the semester.And then require one community service event just because. Everyone would do that I guarantee it. If every fraternity on campus showed up with 75 % for every game the atmosphere would be very rowdy.

Also everyone is very confused where exactly the student section is. We were on one side with another fraternity and a sorority. The other side had two fraternities and sororities as well. Then the bleachers on the floor had a fraternity and a few from another ones. They need to put us all together. I agree the chants were messed up, because we were all spread out its a lot harder to coordinate then if we had an established section. I don't know if there is an actual section but if there is none of the students listen to it. We were all over the stadium which is dumb if we are trying to have a rowdy atmosphere.


Tweet pr email Hart about it. I hope he looks into that. You should be able to bring the cutouts in the games.


do ya'll know if he reads his SMU email account?


Yes, he does read his email. I have emailed him before and he did respond.

Well great work sneaking the heads in! You should get some extra party points.

I saw an interchange with Hart on twitter this week about the heads and he said he would look into it, so I naively and optimistically assumed SMU did something right for a change.

This L and many others is just a function of having no bench. We'll compete very well (ie, potentailly beat) with Memphis next year.
