If we could crack the top 25 before conference starts I think we will sell out a lot of games.

We don't need a tough OOC, we need wins because we have as hoopmanx somewhat said that the conference schedule is the equivalent of an SEC football conference schedule. I hope we get enough wins to make it to post season play.


I agree. I am literally worried that 200 people will show up in Garland. I'm not worried about Moody any more.

Not playing them on Mondays would sure help!

I think we will be fine especially if we beat Arkansas. Lots of SMU alumi and fans live in Plano with is right across the freeway from the Culwell Center.

That Cincinnati game is going to be awesome. We are going to drill them!

I hope if we make a BCS bowl it isn't Rose or Fiesta so we don't have a conflict.

SMU is in a bit of a tough situation on the OOC schedule. The conf jump is so large that we really needed a softer OOC, but SMU will likely draw some criticism for it. They just need to make sure they don't drop any of the OOC. Just ask Baylor, a win is a win. They'll get some respect if they can hold their own in conf play.

Kind of the SEC football mentality. Not too tough OOC schedule because the conference schedule will be tough enough to get us into post season play if we do well.

Not sure I share Hoop's comparison of AAC bball to SEC football, but yes, you need balance between the two.

Except that the lowest turnout was near 1000 and the highest was near 3000.

I'll just take your word for it. Not trying to be cute at all. But it's looked a lot sparser than that to me.

The place holds 6000. No way we ever came close to having it half full. I'd say 1800 was our best, 1000 our worst.
