How can a nonstudent get some UT football tickets for a game this season?

All home games are sold out...

Look here or here for horns selling their tickets. Or you could try Ebay or Ticketcity.com

 

"Braveheart" method works just fine. If you're unfamiliar with this method, you need to recall the movie Braveheart, when before one battle William Wallace screams out "Hold...Hold....Hold...NOW!!!!"

This method is analogous to buying tickets before kickoff. The closer you get to kickoff the cheaper the tickets get. The true Bravehearts come away with the cheapest tickets.

Of course, if you're not a Braveheart then you can try buying from the opposing team's ticket office online. They have an allotment of like 3000 or so.
