I think the 1500 is after the band and Tiger hosts and other designated personnel were accounted for. The band and Tiger hosts et. al. are students too.



Not sure. Would be interesting to find out. I still don't understand why the bowls don't give slightly larger allocations. The Rose Bowl gave out thousands of tickets to Pasadena residents. Don't see why they don't give the schools more from that pile for the national championship


On that note though, if we got an extra 5k tickets, I doubt they would be given to students

I wouldn't just give slightly larger allocations, I'd give a lot more tickets. The Stadium in Glendale set a record attendance of 78,000 in 2011 for the Natty. The Rose Bowl seats 92,000. Couldn't they give each school 7,000 more with half of those going to students? I'm sick of the game being all about money instead of doing the right thing. Students are the ones who make the games exciting for their schools.
