The Auburn Tigers will be playing in the Outback Bowl in Tampa, Jan. 1, 2010.
The University will be offering student tickets to the game at $35, half the price of the tickets' face value, limiting the half-price tickets to one per student.
"The support from the Auburn student body this year has been incredible, and we look forward to seeing a big crowd of students at our bowl game," said Auburn head coach Gene Chizik. "The student section at Auburn is the best in the country, and their passion, along with the support of the rest of the Auburn Family, is one of the reasons we expect to go to a great bowl game."
The University will offer vouchers to receive the half-price tickets at the Auburn men's basketball game against the University of Virginia Monday, Dec. 7 at the student entrance of Beard-Eaves Memorial Coliseum.
Students unable to make the basketball game will be able to pick up remaining vouchers Tuesday, Dec. 8 at 8 a.m. from the Auburn Athletics Ticket Office located on the second floor of the Coliseum.
Tickets themselves will go on sale Wednesday, Dec. 9 at 8 a.m. from the ticket office.
"I want to thank Athletics Director Jay Jacobs for making the bowl ticket more affordable for our students," Chizik said.
To receive the ticket at the discounted price, students must show their Auburn Ignited ID card along with the voucher.
Although students can only purchase one ticket at the discounted price, tickets at the full price of $70 will still be available for those who wish to buy more than one.
