50-60, but your point is a good one. Bottom 50 may be a bit of a hyperbole, but not much. Even if we were to agree we've hit bottom 150, the point it, it's been one heck of a swing.
Look smusic, you're hands down one of SMU's best and most loyal boosters. I'm not trying to start BS with you or any other fan. I'm just honestly so disappointed with the fall off.
Lets just be trend setters. Bring in a DJ, put a disco ball hanging above center court, have Jackie Moon (Flint Tropics) plan our halftime show! It'll be a unique experience that can not be matched!
The difference is that a good team hasn't come into Moody yet, therefore it hasn't been loud. This has made us focus on the small details. For a packed game with a good name team in town, these will all be afterthoughts. We'll see what happens tomorrow night

It will be rowdy tomorrow. Even in the Dement years the TCU games were rowdy. I remember fans in the Red (high $$$) seats showing up dressed as convicts with signs for Lee Nailon. Also remember one of their players dancing on the scorers table after a win.
Have to remember that this is the first time in years that we have played TCU at Moody. The game at the AAC would have been rowdy had it been in Moody - in the AAC it was like a cocktail party because everyone was so spread out.
Wasn't it just 3 years ago that we were playing in Garland? As I recall there were like 5 students at the game and the team had a very soft Kennedy, a Nic Moore that wasn't playing as well as Milton and seniors that were not playing as well as Gu. Our fans just need to relax!

For instance, I heard that USC had a featured dj in the stands. I think putting a dj booth in the standing area on the west end could be really cool.
That would be awesome to have a DJ performing in the standing room area.

Nic was playing better than Shake and MK was not soft. We were undefeated in the Garland arena and were ready to get to Moody.
