Great News, make sure you hit the BLVD a few hours before the game as well. Welcome!
There is no way, the brokers sell all of these tickets before gameday. The scalpers will be at Ford, trying to make deals on game day! There are still good seats available on the west side, per the SMU website site.
If there are 500+ listings of tickets on private sites representing I dunno 1,000-2,000 tickets in private hands isn't SMU cutting its own revenue by playing cat n' mouse with these ticket sales. I mean SMU has been showing limited availiability now for weeks-a prospective purchaser couldn't find two seats together on many days even though SMU in fact had such tickets held in reserve. Why not just sell the tickets and move on to selling general admission on the grassy knoll. A purchaser on stubhub is a lost ticket sale to SMU.

I agree Stallion, but I think they are trying everything they can to get SMU fans in the seats knowing that opening the tickets to the public pretty much fills them with the fetid hirsute hemipygic Tech fans.
SMU ticket site indicates very limited availability. One can get three game mini plans for $50 in the endzone and $75 in sections 220-222 above the student section. These will probably be the last tickets released. I doubt many Tech fans are buying more than a three game plan because a full season plan is $99 (endzone) and $210 (sideline).
It's rather odd that only single tickets are available on the upper west side and section 220 (above students). Sections 100 and 200 have quite a few seats open. I suspect those single tickets are hard to move and they same is true for sections 100/200. The endzone is probably still blocked for faculty/staff and sections 221-222 are reserved for mini plans. With single game tickets at $55-68, if you don't want to sit in sections 100/200, you may seriously go for the upsell (three game package) in sections 220-222. However, you have to be aware that those seats are open, instead of just being turned off by the lack of open seating if you want multiple seats together.
