We've had season tix since 1954 and gave 2 of our 4 back this year due to the exact same things you just said. We've been through getting screwed out of our original seats to "remodel for the wealthier people" a few years back. We finally had enough and said we'll keep 2 but if the cost continues to increase by ridiculous amounts, they can have those back as well.

Sounds familiar to a lot of people. The problem is, there are a lot of people waiting in line to buy our tickets. I am getting old enough, 87 this Fall, that I would rater stay at home and watch our games, and at least two other good games in the comfort of my man cave. The bathroom and parking place are muck closer and the drinks are colder.

Ticketmaster is Tennessee’s largest season ticket holder.

Exactly! Over 10% of the season tickets go to Ticketmaster as part of their deal with UT Athletics. The seats beside me are listed on TM for every game this season for resell. Reselling is forbidden for season ticket holders but they can do it. The Vol fans on the waiting list should be getting these tickets. I’m tired of sitting beside visitors fans every game. Hopefully this changes when the deal expires with Ticketmaster.

Yep, looks like I won't be going to any games anytime soon.I refuse to pay $400 a ticket for Ga. I remember when Kiffin was coach I got them for $60 a piece and was a few rows back from the field. May have been the last UT vs GA game I'll ever see in person.

  • Oklahoma (11/1): ~4% availability remaining
  • Georgia, Arkansas, Vanderbilt show ‘deals available’—implying more supply presently Vivid Seats


💵 Lowest Listed Prices per Game (SeatGeek & Vivid Seats)​


Combined data from SeatGeek and Vivid Seats gives these starting price points per game at Neyland (and the one road game in Atlanta):


Date & OpponentLocationLowest Listed Price
Aug 30 vs SyracuseMercedes‑Benz Stadium (Atlanta, GA)~$105–113
Sep 6 vs ETSUNeyland Stadium (Knoxville, TN)~$86–88

Nov 1 vs OklahomaNeyland Stadium~$236–247
Nov 15 vs New Mexico St.Neyland Stadium~$55–57
Nov 29 vs VanderbiltNeyland Stadium~$87–90



📉 Availability vs. Price: Key Observations​


1. High-demand games: Georgia & Oklahoma​


  • Georgia: One of the priciest listings (~$336–363), but inventory levels are moderate–high, marked as “deals available”. Likely good supply in upper and mid‑level sections.
  • Oklahoma: Premium pricing (~$236–247), with only ~4% of tickets left—suggesting tight availability, especially in mid‑to-lower bowl areas.

2. Lower-profile matchups: ETSU, UAB, New Mexico State, Vanderbilt​


  • These offer some of the lowest entry prices:
    • ETSU and UAB: ~ $86–88
    • New Mexico State: ~$55–57
    • Vanderbilt: ~$87–90
  • However, each of ETSU, UAB, and Oklahoma shows only ~4% of tickets remaining, indicating these games are nearly sold out or in final phases of resale inventory. Vivid Seats

3. Mid-tier games: Arkansas​


  • Priced around ~$197–201 with no explicit low inventory message—implies a healthy supply across various sections, mid-tier pricing zone.

4. Neutral-site opener vs Syracuse​


  • Held in Atlanta (Mercedes‑Benz Stadium), listed with lowest ~ $105–113. Likely ample ticket zones available due to large stadium capacity and less demand pressure. SeatGeek+1Vivid Seats+1


🎯 Pricing vs. Section Averages (Secondary Market Estimate)​


While direct section-by-section availability and listing prices are not published openly, resale sites like SeatGeek/Vivid Seats support these general insights:


  • Upper-level or far end‑zone seats: get‑in prices ~$55–90
  • Mid‑tier sections (lower‑bowl or mid‑level sideline): in the ~$200–300 range
  • Premium sideline, club, or lower prime seating: ask prices ~$330+ (especially for Georgia or Oklahoma games)
  • Higher-end VIP/suites: may be listed at prices well above $1,000 (although our dataset doesn’t show specific high‑end listings)


✨ Summary Highlights​


  • Premium matchups (Georgia, Oklahoma): Highest base prices ($236–$363), with scarcity in inventory (~4% left for Oklahoma; Georgia supply still moderate).
  • Key non-conference games (ETSU, UAB, Vanderbilt, New Mexico State): Lowest listed ticket prices, but limited resale availability left (~4%).
  • Arkansas game: Intermediate pricing (~$197–201), reasonable availability.
  • Neutral‑site opener: Affordable at ~$105–113, with likely robust seating options.


✅ Recommendations for deeper insight​


  • To map pricing and number of available seats per section per game, you'd need to inspect each individual event page on Ticketmaster (linked via the main artist page).
  • If you or someone with access can browse specific seating maps and inventory live, that data could be exported for full granularity.
  • This combined overview, however, gives a clear look at overall market demand, pricing tiers, and availability risk per matchup.

113 dollars in fees and taxes for two tickets priced at at 248.00 each, that's about 20% in fees, total is over the top. Once a year trip out to Neyland and tie in with visit to the Smokies and trout fishing isn't crazy in today's world. Used to get concert tickets in late 70's for about 10 bucks, so over the last 40 years they have been going up 5 dollars a year. That's called Inflation. and being around long enough to enjoy it.
Dont get me started on hotel cost, that's crazy.

They might sell them out, but that doesn't mean that the stadium is full

But empty seats doesn’t mean “alienated fans,” which is was the initial comment. Alienated fans wouldn’t spend $$ to purchase tix.

And, universities are mostly concerned w/ unsold tix, Not “no shows.” No shows have been a thing since I was a student in early 90’s.

I’m a season ticket holder so I was privy to the early sale of single game tickets. I wanted to get some Arkansas tickets for my cousin. The cheapest they had were $195 in the South upper deck.

Ridiculous. THAT’s the presale deal? That’s about the cost of Bama tickets last year in those sections.

He decided to hold off and see what he can find closer to the game.
