LSU fans finding tickets for this game is going to be very expensive/difficult.

Got my tickets secured. Knowing someone in the UT Ticket Office finally pays dividends.

We get what the Big 12 gives out which is substantially less

All of these seats will be in the nosebleed sections

This hasn't always been the case. When I was an undergrad at UT, visiting fans had a fairly decent sized section in the southwest corner.

By the way, LSU will return the favor when the Longhorns visit Tiger stadium in 2020 and UT will only receive 3,000 visitor tickets and those tickets will all be in the upper deck.

Are you sure? I agree that it's only fair, but I can see Alleva giving them the full allotment in the lower bowl because he's a giant pussy.

I'm sure. UT will only get 3,000 tickets. The rest will be sold to LSU fans.

Just booked flight there early Friday morning and flight home Sunday afternoon

Used points for flight there and travel funds from a previous cancelled flight for the flight home.

Can’t wait!!

thx for the heads up. I was checking every day but missed last few days Nice prices from Tampa to Austin direct. Cant wait. Rental cars are high as hell. usually uber but have family that lives about 30 min out and need to have a car for more flexibility.

Also the nicer hotels have been filled or prices are outrageous. Used Airbnb to get a nice place within walking distance to the stadium.

Booked two flights on United for $267.00. Keep in mind, I am Platinum Pro with AA, have not flown another airline in 5+ years, but $134 a ticket is unreal.

What's to prevent a Texas takeover of Tiger Stadium similar to the way UGA fans did it? We all know that LSU fans will sell their tickets to opposing fans in a heartbeat to make a quick buck.

This is a link with seat views. Also shows 119-125 as visitor sections. Texas Stadium Seat Views

Poor decision - UT students are in adjoining Section 126
