“@GoTigers247: Austin Nichols on playing at SMU: "There was a guy dressed up as Mario. I haven’t seen that around the country much." http://memphis.247sports.com/Article/Me ... --34538816”

Fact

1. There will be a small student presence at this game, just like the other holiday games.
2. Even if the full Mob showed up, they would still be passive like they were in November.

I'm more curious if the fans in the rest of the arena will make some noise. This is one of the "marquee" home games of the year.

This is Memphis at home. If Moody is not rocking tonight then there is no magic.

Is this a must win game, too? Basically, if Moody isn't rocking and we don't win it might be time to forfeit the rest of the season. BTW, you can be the judge on whether Moody is rocking tonight. Post after the game so I can make other plans for the remaining game nights if we fail this test.

Someone is grumpy... or should I say HE MAD

No, having a great day. In two threads you've said we should be concerned that we have 100 tix left to sell and if the building isn't rocking the magic is gone. Just keep being the cheerful pessimist.

You assumed that by that comment that I expect a less than acceptable crowd. I was merely stating it should be a great atmosphere. I am expecting a great evening. Regarding the student section the cause for my unrealistic expectation is my desire to see Pastner flip [deleted] again.

That and I want any future prospects to be impressed.

The student attendance will be bad (hope I'm wrong) Rush doesnt start till next week. Very few people are in town from what I can tell. I'll be there but had a hard time finding people to use my tickets.

Then be 10 times as loud (if possible). We need to take them out to Pastner

Fact

By someone's extreme generosity, I got to sit in the front row red seats for the USF game and people were grumbling at me when I jumped up and yelled.... Even on dunks.....

The Mob is no more. Full section tonight. Most pathetic effort I've ever seen.

Agreed, it is terrible this year

Even the Lobster seemed subdued. Many students just stood with their arms crossed.
