LSU student ticket prices for away games came out several days ago. Here's the damage
-$85 at Auburn (Eh...)
-$70 at Florida(Reasonable)
-$55 at Arkansas (yes, more of this)
-$100 at Texas A&M
Look I understand that want to curb the number of of 18-21 blackout drunks running around your campus. But $100 seems a little steep to come visit 'scenic' College Station.
Which SEC schools are charging the most, and the least. I have no idea what LSU charges, hopefully not $100

I'll take a wild guess and say that pricing is based on demand.

Arkansas, a great value! The wal mart way!

You do realize that the school has nothing to do with away game prices right? Unless they've totally changed things in the few years since I graduated.
At UGA, students got a student rate for home games ($8), but the away games were just the face value ticket which the other school set.
Those schools you mentioned in the OP aren't just coming after LSU students, those are the prices that every opponent has to pay going into those stadiums.

yep that is what is happening. home games are discounted but away is sold as a normal ticket.

Mississippi State $35 for 7 games best deal for home games.

Supply and demand!
If you don't buy them, someone else will.

I would have charged 300$ a ticket.

I know there is a whole thread that clearly states where LSU is as far as academic rankings go, but when you request 20,000 tickets to come to scenic College Station; the price of admission will go up.

And you would have had had 100 people show up. $300 is what I pay to go to NFC Championship games.

Those aren't the prices just for students, it's for all tickets for those games. And you just learned a valuable lesson in supply and demand. I'm sure the visiting team will sell out it's allotment.
Arkansas is "only" $55 because it's the day after Thanksgiving and in Fayetteville this year. A much tougher place to get to travel-wise as opposed to Little Rock.

I believe it was $6 a ticket when I was in school (2004-2008). I was paying to watch Patrick Willis during the Orgeron years though.

No, it has nothing to do with that.
When we played at Oklahoma State in the 2009 opener tickets for ALL georgia fans were $100. We were their "special" game that year, one game a year that OSU has that get wildly marked up.
It doesn't matter how much demand their is from LSU fans to go to auburn or florida or arkansas or wherever, the price students pay for those tickets is going to be the exact same as Sam Seasonticketholder, which is whatever that host school decides.

And A&M decided to set it that high because of the incredibly high demand... 20,000.
