LSU's are only $90, and it doesn't pretend to bundle the cost of non-football sporting events that are offered for free.

With Auggie being too drunk to care, Mack struggling, and Rick Barnes throwing in the towel years ago, I would feel robbed of my money as a student.

Now it could be more the fact that LSU offers an incredible deal more than the idea that UT offers a horrible deal.


And UT is much better in other sports outside of the main ones and has twice as many students (thus more people at obscure sporting events). I bet their small sports aren't all free.

$90 for all LSU home football, basketball, and baseball games? That's unreal

Well they are really good at swimming, volleyball, and track, but you could easily argue LSUis equal to or much better than UT in the rest of the no revenue sports

In fact, though I'll note they're OOS students, the majority of them were shocked that people actually gave a damn about college baseball. In their three years, they had gone to about 1-2 games each

However, I agree that I am probably overlooking the basics of supply and demand, and UT has a massive enrollment compared to LSU. They probably have to charge that much to counter the demand.

Yup. I'm pretty positive it was $75 my freshman year, and it's about $85-$90 now. It's a pretty incredible value that I will miss after December
