Anyone that thinks there will be an increase in attendance is being way too optimistic. Memphis won't have a fraction of the fans that Houston had so I expect a healthy decrease. I do however think there will be an uptick of SMU fans due to Homecoming and winning.

I hope for a good student turnout and they can bring some Moody magic with them.

That's why they leave at half time. The basketball fans only think there are two periods of play. After two quarters they leave. I found the answer you guys.

To go off topic, they need to move the students and band back where they were and stick the visitors at the end. It just does not look right.

I'm sure he understands that we've got other stuff going on so we can't be expected to fill a tiny stadium every game unless the team is perfect.

What was the rationale for moving the students and band to the southeast end? TV?
