I'm considering it, now that I finally don't have to work weekends. I'll buy the cheapest if I do it because I don't care where I sit (and I can't afford anything else)

Same for me. I am going with the non K Fund seat. I paid the deposit and expected them to call this week about which section I wanted but no call yet.

My brother has two on the 32 yard line, upstairs, South (Alumni Road) side, 20 rows up, Section 225, for no extra donation. Damn good view. Frankly, they are the best view I’ve ever experienced in the stadium.


Just checked and they are $650.00 for two. Only cheaper tics are in upper corners at $550.00 for two.

I gave away tix to four games last year. It’s fun to give tix to friends with children, but I may be giving mine up.

Agree. Our seats for the last 10 seasons or so, of 40, were about 5-10 rows just lower than those.

I'm in Section 225 row 21 on the aisle (well 2 in from it) next to Section 226 I'm looking squarely at the 40 yard line.

Damn. We’re close.

I think I spilled popcorn on you getting to my seats.

Someday, I hope to spill beer on you, and mustard from my BRATWURST!!!!

My youngest has really gotten into football so that is why I got them. The biggest problem is the first few games will be right in the middle of her golf season and every Saturday is a tournament somewhere. 🤦‍♂️

Or you can just come by the tailgate and get your fill so you don't have to spend money at the concession stands on food your gonna ultimately spill on me.

Have never been a season tix holder. Kids are now grownup. Went to a couple road games last year and tailgated the GA game. We’re considering doing the mini boxes(non alcohol areas) this year. Has anyone have experience with those?

Youth sports and college football games don't go great together. The not knowing game times until 12 days before the game is going to make you madder than you think it will.

Supposedly, the new TV deal(s) will allow us to know kickoff times weeks ahead of time.

I hadn't heard that. It would be nice. That always annoyed the hell out of me. I understand why they do it and it's probably great for those that don't go to games.

Luckily golf is over by the 2nd weekend of October but with having so many home games early I know I will have to miss at least 1 or 2 of the early games.

Please explain. TIF
The new deal is supposed to allow schools and the networks involved to schedule most televised games weeks ahead of time, instead of the hodge-podge hierarchy curently in place where CBS makes a selection 10-12 days ahead of time, and that then affects all the ESPN family selections that follow below the CBS deal.

We’ll see?!?!

Here’s SEC Commish Sankey’s squib on the subject from two years, ago:

“One of our primary goals was to improve the television scheduling process in ways that will benefit our students, coaches, alumni and fans,” Sankey added. “By working in collaboration with ESPN, we were able to secure an agreement that includes more lead time for many game time announcements, and in many ways modernizes the college football scheduling process.”

I’d be surprised if you were called before the deadline for current season ticket holders to renew. Unless you want in the club seats you shouldn’t have a problem getting close to where you want to be.
