From this week’s Byrne Notice on the new “Authentic” merchandise and NIL store in Bryant Denny

The Authentic at Bryant-Denny Stadium Opens its Doors

After several months of planning, we, along with Fanatics, officially opened the doors on The Authentic at Bryant-Denny Stadium, the first-ever retail team store focused on selling officially licensed team apparel and student-athlete NIL merchandise. Lots of work by so many to make this happen, and all worth it after seeing how well-received it has been. As a reminder, the store is open during the week, not just game days. As of right now, hours are as follows:

Home Football Game Weeks (CT)
Monday – Thursday: 10 a.m. – 6 p.m.
Friday: 10 a.m. – 5 p.m.
Saturday (pregame): 10 a.m. – 3.5 hours prior to kickoff (will not open pregame for 1 p.m. or earlier kickoffs)
Saturday (gates open/postgame): 2.5 hours prior to kickoff – 1 hour postgame
Sunday: Closed

Non-Home Football Game Weeks
Monday – Friday: 10 a.m. – 6 p.m.
Saturday: 10 a.m. – 4 p.m.
Sunday: Closed

On football home game days, the store can be accessed from the street entrance on Paul W. Bryant Drive, which is located on the south side of Bryant-Denny Stadium by Gate 34. At 3.5 hours prior to kickoff, the store will be closed from the street-side entrance and will only be accessible to those with a game ticket once gates open 2.5 hours before kickoff. Fans looking to make their way to The Authentic from inside the stadium should follow the directional signage, which leads to the entrance on Level 1 behind section S-4. For those on the upper levels, utilize the elevator near section U4-AA to take down to the first level.

Alabama Defense Preparing for Uptempo Volunteers

I'm curious to see how we handle their uptempo offense (i.e. can we get lined up, can we get subs in and out without having guys trapped on the field, can our conditioning hold up for 4 quarters, etc.).

I guess one benefit to playing this game on the TSIO is that it won't be a billion degrees on Saturday in Knoxville

Legacy and Tradition: Few Understand Third Saturday in October Like Henry To'oTo'o (SI)

This weekend in Knoxville, the Alabama interior linebacker will complete his journey of playing for both teams inside both programs' stadiums.

Tickets Are Expensive for The Third Saturday in October

The cheapest ticket, as of Tuesday morning, between StubHub, Ticketmaster, SeatGeek, and Vivid Seats is $322, which doesn't even include any service fees or taxes. It's also in the upper deck, aka the nosebleed section, of Neyland Stadium.

On the other hand, the most expensive tickets for the game are well into the thousands, with some even coming in over $10,000.
