SMU midfield is at the 35, so a 70 yard playing field (close to half size) plus end zones. At least they are all air conditioned, well all except UTSA. For some reason the people at that school are opposed to building walls.

Wow, what a beautiful facility. So, just North Texas and Houston have indoor practice fields inside solid structures? Texas has an inflatable structure and ATM has cloth, and aren't all the other indoor practice facilities (TCU, Tech, Baylor) short or partial fields? Isn't SMU building a tiny half field facility?

Google shows only an 8 minute walk from Mockingbird Station to Ford Stadium. Not far, but it's also forecast to be a very hot afternoon. .

Google Maps says they're about 60 feet apart.

I don't know how old he is, but Nate does his research and is usually fairly accurate in his assessments. I did not read much that I could disagree with.

They come out of the Denia neighborhood during every game and steal anything they can. To quote Newt, "They mostly come out at night, ... mostly".

But that was before Smoo put in the Douche Deck to cover up thousands of those perpetually empty end zone seats. It sounds like many of you have purchased tickets abutting this garbage. Smoo claims that Ford Stadium seats 30K but around 15% of the seats are either covered by, or have sight lines obstructed by this trash. http://www.fox4news.com/sports/colleges/massive-party-deck-to-be-new-student-section-at-smu-football-games

SMU has Kathy Bates and Needle Nose Ned. nothing else

or Michael Lee Aday, better known professionally as Meat Loaf, having sold over 80 million albums is one of the top selling artists of all time. or actress Ann Sheridan, former North Texas basketball player that was the model of perfection used for the majority of bomber nose art in WWII. Notable roles include San Quentin (1937) with Pat O'Brien and Humphrey Bogart, Angels with Dirty Faces(1938) with James Cagney and Bogart, They Drive by Night (1940) with George Raft and Bogart, The Man Who Came to Dinner (1942), Kings Row (1942) with Ronald Reagan, Nora Prentiss (1947), and I Was a Male War Bride (1949) with Cary Grant. or Michael Martin Murphy's high school classmate and former bandmate Ray Wylie Hubbard who has sold millions of albums and including the hit Up Against The Wall, Redneck Mother or award winning actor and documentary producer Peter Weller or recent Oscar nominee Thomas Hayden Church

That would have been Lamar.

Don't let the final score fool you, it was 31-0 before ACU even crossed midfield. Not saying that ACU didn't play well or didn't keep it entertaining in the second half, but the final result had already been determined.

It was Manny and his rasslin fan friend Nacho Libre. I seriously doubt anybody else came just because of the rasslin match.

I haven't seen the guest list, but I bet it would include Jason Pertle after the monster game that garnered him CUSA Offensive Player of the Week.

A&M played at Michigan several decades ago and did not bring their band. The Michigan band formed the outline of Texas with the ATM in the middle and enthusiastically played the Aggie fight song. It was pure greatness as a sign of respect between two incredible schools. I would love for the Brigade to play the visitors Alma Mater pregame to the visitors section when they don't bring their band. It's a lot of music to learn, but it does make an impression on our guests. (then we can scare the hell out of them with the cannon blast) 😉

There are some North Texas side tickets for sale for fairly cheap on: https://www.markstickets.com/tickets/gerald-j-ford-stadium/t3891296/southern-methodist-smu-mustangs-vs-north-texas-mean-green-tickets

for Evan, Tensile Ten One of the striking visual elements in the union was the fiber art that hung on the wall in the main indoor courtyard. The work, Tensile Ten, was the creation of artist Francoise Grossen. It combined over 1,500 pounds of rope. The sculpture was built using one over hand knot as the only structural element to create the 30 feet by 16 foot fiber work. It was named Tensile Ten because there were five points at the top and five at the bottom where the artwork was attached to the wall of the Union.

Loved the Brigade on Saturday, great performance all day.

“Hey, I know we're all in strung out shape but stay frosty and alert.” Stay Frosty my Friend. The all white uniforms are greatness. .

What is Reen Fo, some kind of noodle dish?

The author already corrected the name to McNatt.

Show started, as best I remember in 1983 as Corky's Corner in the Rock Bottom Lounge (with free beer) in the basement of the old Union and was always hosted by Bill Mercer. It was several years later that George Dunham and Craig Miller took over, and that was at a place called TJ's Sandwich Shop on Eagle & Bernard. Then Dunham hosted it for many years at the Sheraton/Radisson, Texas Pick Up, Tia's, El Guapo's, Hooters, Sweetwater Grill, and finally Rudy's by the start of McCarney's tenure. Hank and George have been doing the shows together since the mid 90's and Dave Barnett joined Hank a few years ago. I have witnessed what started out as one coach, one host, one school reporter, and often one fan (me) gradually turn into what must be one of the better, and most professional, coach's shows in the country. I also don't think my frustration was too veiled when the only promotion for this season's shows was "somewhere out there in the twitterverse" ***Oh, and I still wish they'd do post-game shows from the Alumni Pavilion. This is a HUGE missed opportunity every week.***

Then, dammit, rehire and fire Johnny Jones! All else aside, us 44, them 31.

Because of the revised NCAA rules, a player can play in up to four games and still have it count as a redshirt year. This revision started this past season.

Perhaps they could drop the pooft cannon on the heads of thyne enemy...
