If you read the whole article, it says,
While alcohol sales may not be available this year at the Stadium, it’s a recommendation still being given a lot of thought.
It's not dead yet, call, e-mail, tweet...write a letter...let your wants/needs be known to the University Athletics Committee. 8)
SMU's first president, Robert S. Hyer, selected Harvard Crimson and Yale Blue as SMU's colors to symbolize SMU's high academic standards. We are one of the few Universities to have school colors with real meaning...and we just blow them off.

I'll just kick back in my chair and enjoy the Coog Brew (special red beer, UH tradition) among the many other beers and liquors I can buy from the concession stand.

It's Bud Light with food coloring. It's good that you have beer, but let's not pretend it's something special.

It seems they found the sale of beer might have a slight impact on attendance but are missing the bigger revenue opportunity (provided liability is covered) which could fund additional marketing options to fill the seats.

"Selling alcohol in Ford Stadium might have pulled a few fans off of the Boulevard and into the stadium, but SMU students should come support their team and alma mater regardless of what is sold in the stadium," said Tyler Scott, senior and Student Representative to the Athletics Committee of SMU Board of Trustees.
