cowboys play on saturday?
Mavs? maybe one?
Rangers? in october? haha

The stadium has a new capacity of 30,000.

the fact remains that everyone in oklahoma is either an OU or OSU fan, and tulsa has half the enrollment of SMU. tulsa does a MUCH better job promoting the team within the city.

It isn't the day they play that is important. It is the fact that the "T-Shirt Fan" segement of the population in the metro area affiliates with the Cowboys versus the local schools. Couple that with the lack of regional matchups and you have TCU, SMU, Houston, Rice, etc. Hence we are not in the Big 12 versus putrid Baylor. BCS Conferences do not want NFL cities.

Happens in every single NFL city. Come to grips with it.
