Looks like they have a pretty good crowd, even Pitt brought a few more people than last year.

The offensive line is about like last years though. It is hard to see how Pitt almost beat ND.

they have to be the slowest, plodding team in BCS. They would get hammered playing Southern teams

How in the world did Pitt take ND to 3 OTs?

ND has mediocre QB play, which is why several other lousy teams almost beat them.

Kind of cool that an SEC school thinks enough of the Compass Bowl to dump Gaterade on their coach after winning it. Did we do that to JJ last year?

:lol:

29,726 last year when we were there. I would guess 17,000-18,000 SMU fans. We did our part.

I was there and would guess we had 4,000-5,000. Anyone else there want to guess our crowd?
