1. A ticket broker bought up the last part of F$U's alotment. How many actual tickets that was I do nor know. But I believe there will be less than 30K F$U fans in the Dome next Sunday night. My guess is 22K actual Semenhole fans in the seats as many LSU fans bought tickets through F$U.
2. The REAL question is how many LSU fans will be in the seats. I suspect it will be 35K or so.
3. I think there will be many empty seats next Sunday night, maybe 10-12K.

I posted my 600 level tickets on Ticketmaster for double what I paid and they sold in 3 hours.
It was mentioned earlier and I agree, that if there are any tickets left, LSU fans will scoop them up cause there is no hurry for them to have done it in advance.
I think it will be 70/30

I know of two brokers who bought hundreds of tix from Fla St allotment. I’d say 75/25.

Prices on ticket broker websites keep climbing, too. Logged on today thinking I could get some in the $80-$90 range but currently after fees and all, tix are going for $160+ in the upper deck.

I'm expecting a 67.217-32.815 split with the remaining tickers going to assholes who have tickets and don't go to games.

I bought tickets through their site. FSU had them on sale before LSU did. Upper deck at $50 a piece was good for me.
I think many LSU fans bought through their site as well.

Florida St. sold out of their allotment months ago. I think LSU has tickets for sale. Just sayin….
Nearly all the (decent) seats left available on stubhub are FSU seats. Lots of sideline and club level FSU seats available when I checked last week. And they are priced lower than worse seats on LSU side.

It’s going to be 80/20. My coworker lives in Baton Rouge and is a huge Florida State alum and he is not even going to the game.
They don’t travel well

from their allotment because their tickets were cheaper?

I'm betting 55/45. It'll be close to even with just a little edge to LSU

They're not the same team as last year By your logic can we just apply the 2019 LSU team to this year?
You mean to tell me they overhauled their entire roster Michigan State style from 2021 to 2022?
also, 2019 to 2022 is quite the gap compared to 1 season. You’re failing to miss the point here. Losing to an FCS team is unacceptable no matter what. FSU lost to one. I’m not going to check the entire rosters but willing to bet a lot of the guys on that team are still here and will play Sunday.

We've never had that kind of crowd advantage when we've played in the Dome.
BYU, Tulane, Illinois were at least 3/4 LSU fans
OU, Alabama, Ohio State, Notre Dame, Clemson were not as one sided

I think LSU will be surprised by the large contingent of FSU fans at the game based on the comments.
There would be even more if it wasn’t a 300k pride parade that weekend.
LSU will have more fans in the streets and bars but the game will be close to 55/45 LSU.
FSU will travel well for this game. They have always traveled well to New Orleans and ATL. When we played Bama in ATL it was 50/50.

FSU has lots of fans but you don’t really see them as a major traveling fan base. Their donor levels are way behind most sec programs.

The announced attendance at their game yesterday was 51,200, 28,000 under capacity.

As far as donors, keep in mind FSU is still a relatively young program compared to the Blue Bloods (which we are not). We were a womens school till about 1947. The Gators had a 50 year head start on us but we still won a National Title before they did. One of our billionaire alumni is a woman that owns spandex. She isn’t a football fan.
As far as traveling, it’s funny. I believe there is currently a pent up demand for FSU fans traveling due to recent play.
For 14 straight years we were in the top 4 and playing in either a New Years bowl or National title. We got spoiled there for a while. It became harder to travel to those big games every single year. In 2013 we traveled very well. We sold 50% of the rose bowl in Pasadena California with Auburn fans. We have now been humbled again and haven’t even made a bowl 3 out of 4 years. We are ready to travel again. We are ready for a decent product on the field again. We are ready to travel to big games and bowl games in droves again. We will be well represented in New Orleans and now maybe even more FSU fans decide to go now that we won our first opener since 2016.
