Buy up some okie state reservations.

It's a firesale on there.

Just got 2 plaza for $10 a piece.

They beat OU (they do have a chance to) and they have a really good chance of making the game. Computer score will be great. Big 12 champs.

This reminds me of the firesale of the LSU reservations after Arkansas.

Not saying they can beat OU, but what a steal for a team that still has a decent chance to be there.

Uh, no. That's just throwing away money.

Note that you can buy up reservations for the UAB Blazers for a similar amount.

If it's only $10 it's worth it... The voters will not be thrilled about a rematch against Bama or Oregon... That leaves Ok state who will have a very good computer score if they win out.

ETA: maybe the ACC champ Clemson or VT... but I just don't see voters getting behind them.

Trust me.

OSU wins one game, and they have a 50/50 chance of playing for the whole thing.

UAB isn't going.

People are overreacting to that loss. I did at first too. But at second glance, if they beat OU they're more than likely competing with Oregon for who has the better argument to play us.

Just thought I'd help out other tiger fans if interested.

That's why I bought a pair.

For $10 bucks, can you really go wrong? They are going to be a legit contender to be in that game if they beat OU.

You do know you still have to buy the the tickets?

You'll be able to get face value tickets anyways...

Yes.

So in essence, you'd be getting BCS game tickets for face value.

I own 2 LSU reservations I bought right after the Bama game before they jumped up to 400.

Now I own 2 plaza OSU reservations in addition to my two terrace level LSU reservations.

You just can't pass a deal like that up when OSU has such a legit chance to be in the game.

It's basically a stock market. The BCS people allot a certain number of tickets for these reservations. People buy and sell the reservations all throughout the year. Obviously the price fluctuates based on likelihood of a team getting there (or how dumb the reservation holders are).

So at the end of the year, the holder of the reservations can buy the tickets for face value.

OSU's reservations have dropped from 600 to now 10 bucks after their loss. Snatch them before people watch that BCS reveal show telling everyone else how they can get to that game.

Basically, it's a bargain gamble. If OSU loses to OU, you're out 10 bucks. If they win, you could either see LSU play for the national championship basically for face value, or you could sell them and make a couple of grand.

10 bucks is worth the chance.

Yep.

God people don't realize how stupid they are being.

At least hold off a week before you sell your tickets.

I guarantee you they will be back close to 75ish at least by kickoff for OU.

Wow they're already at $50.

Might have even undervalued what they'll be worth in a week

That is how I got 10 for LSU in 2007. Ticketreserve is a wild ride, that's for sure.
