Alabama athletic director Greg Byrne confirmed that the school will seat its 5,000 allotted tickets for Texas fans and the band in the upper deck of Bryant-Denny Stadium. The move comes after Texas did something similar for last year's matchup between the two teams, placing its allotted tickets for Alabama fans and its band in the upper deck of Darrell K Royal-Texas Memorial Stadium.
