Texas sucks with visitors. They only give fans a little sliver of a section on the SE corner of the stadium and the visiting team has to walk down a set of stairs to get to their locker room at the opposite corner of the stadium.

The Texas Season Ticket Holders have nearly purchased up all the remaining individual seats. Those will be on secondary markets soon and I count 2000+ seats available on StubHub alone. This market will drop considerably -

I'm still holding out til game day.

The Big 12 requires their schools to have a 3500 ticket visitor allotment. Oklahoma has that amount now.

Look for the SEC teams to lower their alotments. LSU has, from 8500 to 7000 to 6000 now. LSU has led the way on fighting for lower visitor alotments in the SEC. We'll probably go down to 5K soon.

Yep. It's a conference-wide policy.

This is the first I've heard of us giving less tickets to visitors. Are you certain?

I find it hard to believe that Alleva lead the fight in anything, and Woodward hasn't been at LSU long enough to do it. For years we gave visiting fans better seats than any other SEC school. We finally wised up and moved the majority of the visitor seating to the east upper deck, but it took a long time to do it.

I am certain of what I posted. That info came from a fulltime ticket office employee that I know.
