For tickets made available to the schools, yes, theyre even, however, that does not make up the entire number of tickets sold. A huge portion of the tickets are available to the local businesses and sponsors.
My friends at OSU and alum are worried about the effect the location will have. There will be a good showing of OSU fans, but I think LSU will outnumber them comfortably.
As for the teams - I dont buy OSU. You made some very good points JayP, but they beat teams handly that just arent very good. The beautiful thing is - we'll see in a month who's right.
