Realistically....

Will there be many selling, and what am I looking at shelling out for a pair of lower bowls on 11/5?

Possibly so. I've never had luck buying scalped Bama tickets. Good luck

You'll be able to find a few for around 150. Try to find someone actually going to game to buy from. Not a scalper.

You can really bargain with them if they are some shitty seats in the upper deck you may can get them for 150. Most likely gonna be in the 225-350 range for decent seats.

100/each will be the max you will have to pay on game day, right before kickoff.. the people spending 500/pair will do it before game day.. like every game so far this year, the supply will be more than the demand on game day right before kickoff, so the buyers will get a decent price... if it happens to look like rain 20-50/ticket

Agreed that RIGHT before kickoff there will be the latecomers trying to get to their seats in a hurry. you could snag a few decent seats around $100 a piece...maybe less.

Depends on how many you need. If a single, will be easy to come by on game day 15 minutes before kick off. I haven't paid more than $50 for a single ticket in the lower bowl in the last 5 years, Bama included. People get desperate when they are walking into the stadium.

Price on ticket is $116, so that's pretty much face value or below face when you add in what was paid in Tradition Fund per game.

Don't see as many outrageous prices now that they started to get closer to realistic face prices on tickets.

I was looking at Stub Hub earlier. The cheapest in the Upper Deck were $135. They go way up from there.

Two years ago there was a mad dash for tickets with insane prices. I waited until 15 min before kickoff and found a scalper unloading tix. Paid $100 each for 2 lower bowl. Did the same thing in Tuscaloosa too.

I'll sell you mine in section 216 for $1,000 a piece. Seat backs included.
