Prices skyrocketing for ‘Bama-Texas

If you’re going to Tuscaloosa, Alabama on Saturday for the Alabama-Texas matchup that’s the latest Game of The Century – or if you’re already there – you’d better be ready to pay.

Like, through the nose.

A story by David Hookstead of Outkick.com here (Tuscaloosa Hotel, Airbnb Prices Exploding For Alabama/Texas – OutKick) says everything from tickets and hotels to Airbnb’s are getting rather expensive in T-Town in advance of the Saturday night game, which features first-year starting quarterback Jalen Milroe and another powerful Nick Saban defense of the third-ranked Crimson Tide against former UA offensive coordinator Steve Sarkisian, now the head coach of the Texas Longhorns.

Alabama and Texas kick off at 6 p.m. Saturday night on ABC – for those of us who aren’t going.
