Nice, sell those nosebleeds to gator fans for $200 a ticket and get a couple million for a new indoor practice facility.

Well as of yesterday...and today stub hub has 6K and i guess today they opened up the corners...so you do the math
9K + 6K = 15K......could be wrong I don't have a UM degree

The ticket office has been selling the upper corner tickets to this game for a while. They haven't just opened them yesterday for ticket sales.

Will these additional seats now be available through UM or Ticketmaster?
.
Asked about the status of ticket sales, James said a small number of season tickets are still available. If those are unsold by game time — he didn’t specify the date — the school will release them for sale.

Freet said those tickets may not reach the open market.

“We are in process of selling all the seats to waiting list of Hurricane Club (donors) members,” Freet wrote in an email. “The list was 700 accounts long after the previous single game allotment was sold. These seats will never be ‘publicly’ available because [Hurricane Club] members will scoop them up.”

Freet said if Hurricane Club members do not buy all the extra seats, a small number of single tickets — he guessed a couple hundred — could be available. However, they might be one seat in the middle of a section.

Currently, the cheapest ticket for UM-UF on StubHub is $120, for end zone nosebleeds. By contrast, StubHub’s most expensive ticket for the FAU game: $255. Tickets for that game start at six bucks.

Most of the Miami fans will be watching from the eating areas inside the stadium. It's too hot for them and to expose their sensitive skin to such harsh conditions is unthinkable.
