Did you go to SMU, cause you don't talk like it.

I wonder if Fatterson has started his losing rant yet?

I think Patterson is on Prozac. He does not seem as animated this year.

Went here, graduated, season ticket holder, and Mustang Club member. Attend every home game and 2-3 road games per year on average. I can also look at things objectively and call them what they are.

I predict that the Frogs will blame the officials for the loss today.

Yes, they lost. No one in that stadium was more thrilled than I was. Hell of a game.

But they lost in a first class facility. Fantastic game presentation. Place was full (I realize it was Homecoming). First non-SMU game at TCU I had ever been to. They put on a terrific show.

I could not help but contrast with our game just three days ago.

We're more than a decade behind them, assuming we can reach that level at all.

I know I'm going to catch grief, but I came away terribly impressed.

Still thought the fans were obnoxious, though.

Truth hurts big time. Completely agree though.

This is the most mystifying part about SMU to me...just how is our game presentation so bad? My high school had better game presentation than SMU does. Our presentation has been better this year, but it is still abysmal in comparison to other Division I schools...and that contributes to the small-time feel and keeps casual fans from coming back just as much as anything else does.

It's gotten better, but all it takes is a little research going to other stadiums. Not that difficult.

Having money helps both with presentation and facilities. The Big East money will spend.

I'm sure that's what they were thinking last year when SMU played them there and today.
