The student tickets are half the story. The other part is that, per SEC rules, Kentucky received 9,500 tickets in their allotment. They sold 3,300 and returned the rest last month.
That's one of the big reasons we (and the other schools in the conference) have struggled to sell out in recent years. Visiting teams are not traveling fans. In the last two years, only one team has bought their full visitor allotment, and that was Alabama this year. Every other school has returned at least 1,000 tickets. Usually more.
