For 2018 home games, UT will pay ETSU $500K, UTEP $1.4M, Charlotte 500K. That totals $2.4M. ETSU, UTEP alotted 2000 tix each, Charlotte 5000
Send the band, sell the rest. There will be plenty of tickets, and even more complaining over a home schedule in Knoxville that consists of two bottom tier mid major FBS teams and an FCS.
Those tickets in the allotment are probably in the top of the end zone. We would probably get better seats cheaper right before the game. Would be a blast just to play them close.
For those who are interested, I remember reading the entire contract in a WJHL article when this agreement was originally announced.

UT usually has a section in the lower section along the endzone-10 yard line or so for the visitors on the sideline that our players will be on. UT does a really good job with these types of games. They are good seats for the visitors, and the UT band usually faces this visitors section and plays that team's fight song. Then the game starts and it gets out of hand quickly.
Also this game will be the home opener for UT next year. September 8th.
