The average SEC ticket price - including the minimum donations required for the right to purchase season tickets - has increased 80 percent since 1998, from $61.07 to $110.05, according to an analysis by The Birmingham News.
In the SEC, Alabama ($50.71) and Auburn ($50) have the most expensive average face-value tickets in 2008.
Alabama charges $355 for season tickets and requires at least a $130 donation. To sit in better seats, there are minimum donation levels at $260, $390, $600, $1,300 and $3,250.
At the very minimum, a Crimson Tide fan who wants season tickets will pay $69.29 per game in 2008. That's up 67 percent from a decade ago.
Thirteen SEC games cost $55 or more this season. Alabama or Auburn is involved in nine of them.
