Does that include SMU scheduling as well?

Unfortunately no one is ever going to boycott games, even if they are terrible matchups, just because they want to watch their team play.

Example: how many people on this board are going to waste their time watching smu Montana state.......... I know I am.

I bet there will be around 10k bought tickets and only 5k show up... Especially given the collapse against tech

With that said, me plus 1-2 the rest of year for football and basketball, bought season tickets for first time ever...my 10 year old son who lives with mom in Lubbock loves SMU and so does my 15 year old nephew here in Plano.
Both want to go to SMU!!!


Very cool. Glad your son didn't go over to the TX Tech dark side. There is something in the water out there.


Yeah, we could NEVER let that happen.. His mom is SMU Alumni too.

Looks like we invited some high school bands. We put them in the sun. That was smart

I was pleasantly surprised by the turnout, I would say 15-16,000 with up to 2,000 Montana St fans. Friendly bunch, gracious in defeat as we were in victory. ..and what a finish to the game as well as first half. And it wasn't hot at all, nice breeze.
Can't wait til next home game October 5 when Rutgers comes in.
