Michigan only gave us 3,000. We sold all those plus many others bought some on their own. How many fans do most visting SEC teams bring?

In the SEC it is mandated how many tickets you must make available to opponents. I don't know the exact number. I would guess 6,000 - 8,000. Someone on this board knows, I'm sure. OOC BCS conference opponents probably offer each other the same, because it is usually a home and home situation. But OOC opponents such as yourself will not get as many as our SEC foes receive.

SEC teams usually get about 7500 tickets allotted to them. Other than Vanderbilt and Kentucky, they usually sell out their allotment for games at LSU. Arkansas might be an exception, since that game is always the day after Thanksgiving and some people have plans with family or go hunting.

Ole Miss, Alabama, Auburn, Florida, Georgia and Tennessee always sell out their allotments and bring a lot of fans. Mississippi State generally does, I think, and South Carolina had a good crowd in previous years, but I wasn't at last year's game so I don't know if they did or not.
