Official: SMU vs. USF Thread

Mike Doocy just tweeted that the announced attendance was 6,332

im guessing from where he sat he saw too many empty seats in the reds. We need to figure that out. How about we get the emails of everyone in that section. If they miss, we send them an email asking if they are ok or if maybe there was a death in the family. And ask if they would like to give them up we can fill them with other people and give them a refund. They will get the hint.

GREAT crowd tonight. Still disappointed in the number of empty red seats though

I got roasted for bringing it last game, but agreed. WTF?

It's not fair to expect everything to go from 0-60 overnight guys. This is still going to take time.

We've already made incredible progress and, god(father) willing, we'll continue to get better In all aspects of our program.

i would agree. Last yr we would have had 1500-2000

It wasn't a sell-out. 6,332 is well short. That's tickets bought, not people at the game. Meaning there were at least 700 seats littered throughout the stadium that were empty. Still, that's a hell of a lot better than 1,500 last year isn't it?

It's fair to expect a small sideline section of the best seats in the house to not be noticeably empty. All I'm saying.

[blackoutpony]

^ I agree with you on that. I didn't look, but I hope those weren't all the tickets that were on stubhub. There needs to be a better way of getting the best seats in the house to mustangs fans.

[PonySnob]

What was the attendance?

I would guess 6,000. Only the sideline upper three or four rows were empty. The student turnout was best I've seem in a while. Overall a great crowd

Big suites on each end were vacant tonight it looked like.

That place was a lot louder tonight than at the uconn game, especially early.

A lot more people were there than I thought would be. Getting downtown by 6 is a [deleted].

AP has it as 6,300 and change.

downtown? you think SMU is downtown?

Sunday night attendance vs. Hofstra could be worse going up against the AFC/NFC Championship games

[TidePony]

It was great - and will only get better. It is kind of hard to get to Moody by 6:00, but well worth the extra effort. Loved our students today. I wouldn't miss this team!

[smusic 00]

There were over 6,000 tix distributed and they expected about 700 no shows, so I'd put it at around 5500 butts in seats. Not bad for a 6:00 Wednesday game against a team no one cares about.

[CoxMustangFan]

downtown? you think SMU is downtown?

Yes, especially if you're someone coming from Frisco.

[SMU 86]

Good crowd imo.
