Just hope our band does not show up in shorts and tees, and don't give me that crap about the heat. The players are out there in much more gear than the band. Those "summer" uniforms are completely a

I thought they were having some financial issues, sending the band to all the away games is not cheap.

Did they attend the last time they played us?  For some reason I don't think so...

Last year I went to the Houston v SMU game. It was UNT's bye week and I figured I would catch a game for my football fix since they were playing in Dallas. Anyways.. Their band took over at SMU's house, pretty Embarrassing for SMUt.. You would have thought it was being played in Houston the way the Houston band took over. UNT won't have this issue, but there is going to be a battle on the field as well as the stands that day. I CANNOT wait for this game day atmosphere.

Much like the La Tech game last year... This game will have much hype.  This is how every game should feel at Apogee.  I am glad we are getting a taste of what it could be like.  Need that dub

Exactly, If we are 4-0 or 3-1 going into that game.. Apogee will sell out, ticket buyers at the gate will have to go watch at East Side drafthouse lol.

nota big crowd there

 

It's pregame, most fans would still be tailgating, and everyone wearing ponchos indicates inclement weather which would further keep fans out of their seats until kickoff.

This is how many Houston brought last time:

 

Naw...Bring that overshot of Apogee stadium that UNT likes to use in marketing sometimes...You will see the red scattered throughout the stadium + your above image. They brought more fans to Apogee than anyone else ever has except for maybe 2017 vs Army. Some have flirted with it such as UTEP when they're good, UTSA when they're good and LaTech when they're good.

There's another big crowd of red over near the wing and one directly on the opposite side of the visitors section, on this album. Fans are very dispersed throughout the stadium. A lot more than SMU brings regardless.

Yeah. They easily fill the entire visitor section, both tiers, plus some more. Though it's not physically filled because they decided to pick and choose their seats. 

Either way, I think both teams feel good about where their programs sit and I expect the stadium to be at full capacity.

All 26 fans at that Houston game really enjoyed the show.  I too enjoy kazoo music. 

I thought it odd that a school who's mascot is a cougar would play a song named, "Horse."   But that's just me.

Incarnate Word brings more of their own fans than SMU.

The Houston band is the second most annoying I've ever seen.  My first experience with them was at Texas Stadium while we were whipping them 28-0.  They were annoying the entire game.

In other news, with their Mr. Peppermint uniforms,  $MU is the most annoying, especially when the come on the field and look like they are trying not to step in any cow patties.

I would pay an additional $100 at the gate to watch their little pony drag its handler across the field again. That was priceless.

Those SMU folks have no interest in leaving their comfy confines of University Park...hell, they don’t even go to their own football stadium.
