Weather is now going to SUCK! Be there anyway!

Idk, hopefully we have at least 45k but I’m sure tiger90 will chime in with a more accurate estimation

Several thousand tix being given to military and veterans. We're honoring veterans that day. So that will definitely help

They should do a giveaway. Like towels or something, this city loves towels at sporting events.

To clarify, those tickets were purchased by season ticket holders for the specific purpose of being donated to the military and first responders. You make it sound like the tickets are simply being given away.

I anticipate alot of tickets will be sold next week with the decent weather forecast.

SMU ain't bringing a soul. I'm thinking 40K ---- which is great for so late in the season.

Let's get going Tiger Nation! History in the making! Buy a ticket and bring a friend!

I get what you are saying, but don't really understand the late in the season effect. Perfect weather (not 90F), 8-1 team playing for division title. I understand attendance dropping when the Tigers would have a losing record in November, but this is a different time.

Regardless, do what YOU can to encourage and influence people to be there Saturday. It should be an exciting high-scoring shootout!

I’ve got six committed.

My spouse, my boss (work boss), his date, btiger and his date.

Gonna be a good day.

Breakfast on Tigah Lane

That’s just not true about SMU not bringing a soul....



They are expecting up to 100 fans, and are pretty sure that 32 Ponies will make it


So 40,032!

I have seen ' first ever conference championship game' possibility in other games. So, please help me with my not so sharp middle age memory. Under Fuente we won american conf. , but there was no championship game. Correct? Were we co- champs?

Correct. We clinched the title first, so we received the actual championship trophy. UCF and Cinci were able to become co-champs after we clinched, and they were awarded 3/4 sized replica trophies; something that causes UCF fans butthurt to this day.

Got 4 committed out-of-towners.........GTG! Let's cheer-in the AAC west champs!

This will be the largest crowd of the year. Lots of excitement. Also lots of people planning on using their free tickets that came along with their season tickets

Per the seating chart, it looks to be the best attended game yet.

The contingent of SMU families from Briarcrest and MUS alone could fill up a lower level section.

Really wil be worth some local advertising by the school.

Promote the bigness of this game...get your tickets. Don't leave it up for chance.

Ad blitz, get them in there. We are using all eight of ours. Cannot wait.

Imagine that, wake up and now it is showing 50% chance of rain Saturday, probably be 100% by game day.

If it shows more than 40% chance 3 days out from the game, kiss the crowd goodbye. Doesn't matter what it actually ends up doing. Outdoor decisions are made here 3 days out.

Unbelievable. now a 60% chance morning showers.

Still, errbody grab errbody and go to the game Saturday!
