Great student turnout too!

I'd like to pretend I had something to do with that.

Still feel that it was more in the range of 25K.

[smoothfresh]

Great crowd tonight. Enjoyed seeing the wingzone. Thank you to those who came out, i know the team appreciates it.

[meangreener]

That North Texas chant was epic.

Crowd was loud, and energetic.

We really could stop coming in so late and leaving so damn early though.

I went in at the end of the 1st qt. just in time to see MTSU tie the game.

If you have any trouble finding a job after college SMU will hire you to count attendance.

It was 21 for the Idaho game too and there were way more people there today than there were at Idaho.

[Joshdude182]

Looked like around 25k to me. 21k seems way too low...

Ya, looked about 16 or 17k, but still a hell of a turnout. From what I expected it to be. .

Announced attendance is always higher than actual attendance. It might have been closer to a legit 21k at this game.

It looked really full on TV. The camera guys did a great job of focusing on the crowds during crowd shots, instead of half-empty sections.

I loved the chant too, but dangit, I wish we could get that in the time between national anthem and the team coming into the stadium.

I don't think you have to pretend--even if it was a small part. Just keep the momentum going with it. I think you are doing a really great thing.

I thought it was a great turnout. Just imagine if we had beat Tulane.

I was under the stands during the North Texas chant and it did sound impressive.

I feel it's likely you did have something to do with that, and I do think it was a significantly larger crowd than Idaho. I really doubt if "everybody" (junior cheerleaders?) there was counted. And stick with your goal of 30k; it's easier to achieve a goal if you have one and keep moving towards it.

[emmitt01]

So let me get this straight. I'm the bad guy for saying meangreener consistently overestimates attendance numbers? I would have loved for there to be 25k there but I think the announced number was spot on.

[LongJim]

Count looked legit to me. I told my wife "between 20 and 22k".

[JRock]

Impressive crowd. Involved and loud.

[Eastwood Eagle]

Nice crowd and if we keep on winning it should only get bigger.

Is this sarcasm?

It was clearly 16-18,000

I think tonight we saw a legit 21-22k and that the Idaho count was a tad too high.

Still, #hit30k!

[KingDL1]

I think if we can continue to win we will see a sell out against SMU next season, if we win out maybe against San Antonio

[SSP]

I think those posters around campus really helped. The free admission ones.
