What I've heard is that Bama is assuming they'll win Saturday, so fans are saving their money for playoff tickets.

Everyone I know that generally goes to games like this bought tickets through the University or online. There will be as many Alabama people there as there always are.

Probably doesn't have anything to do with Mizzou. This game is last in terms of preference for people deciding on the next 3 games imho.

Mizzou really travels well. They turned us into the away team in Oxford last year.

Auburn easily had 70-75% of the attendance last year...this is not surprising.

Did that honestly surprise you? Auburn is 100 miles from Atlanta while Columbia is around 700 miles. I would hope you could get more fans there.

Not to mention Missouri fans had to deal with the huge snow and ice storm. I know at least 5 people that couldn't make it because they were planning on driving and the road conditions were so bad.

I was there though

Most Tide Pride didn't get tickets.
The ones I know didn't.
They didn't go for sale on the website...went to students, faculty/staff A Club and the top tier of Tide Pride.

Not only already counting us as a win, but already counting the next game as a win when they don't even know who they are playing.

Nope. Didn't say it did. I was just pointing out that it would not surprise me if Mizzou returned some tickets.

Let me lay it out for you. We have a tiered system in our season ticket system. The bigger the game the higher your tide pride total number has to be in order to get tickets.

Basically what happened for this game is the ticket office guessed on how far the ticket allotment would go. Meaning, they thought the tickets would run out before reaching below 300 TP points. Well the tickets didn't run out so they are offering them to the newer season ticket holders with lower tide pride total points.

Don't get this confused. We aren't having a public sale or anything. The tickets are just available to more season ticket holders this year because demand isn't as high as it usually is.
