TUSCALOOSA, Alabama -- For the second time this season, Alabama will likely play in front of a non-capacity crowd in Bryant-Denny Stadium.
Several hundred tickets remain unsold for the 3 p.m. Saturday homecoming date with FCS opponent Western Carolina. The university is offering the unsold tickets for $55. Each ticket comes with a $10 voucher for merchandise or concessions.
The vast majority of the unsold tickets are in the top rows of the south end zone upper deck. The seats are available on Alabama's official athletics website or by calling 205-348-262 or toll free at 1-877-843-3849.
UPDATE: As of Saturday morning, several hundred tickets remain for sale on the UA website.
On the secondary market, 268 seats were offered on StubHub.com on Friday afternoon. Tickets started at $46.96.
Weather shouldn't be an issue Saturday with temperatures expected to be in the mid-60s around kickoff.
Alabama sold out every home game after playing selling 100,306 for the home-opener with Florida Atlantic. Bryant-Denny Stadium seats 101,821.
A year ago, the Tide drew 100,179 for the Chattanooga game a week before the Iron Bowl.
