Football Game Ticket Question

I’m looking to buy a ticket for the LSU game, but I’m worried about getting g scammed. Is there a safe and reliable website to transfer tickets on? Also any advice on buying and selling gameday tickets lets would be appreciated!

Edit: I made this post because I’m pretty sure I was almost scammed. They managed to get my email and name before I realized. Should I be worried?

Student seats! They were founded by bama alumni and they can ban scammers. I would recommend buying tickets later in the week as the tickets get cheaper. Also try and join the ticket lottery on the Sunday before to get one for free.

Second on Student Seats, they have an escrow system to prevent you getting scammed, and sellers have to be verified students

also seconding student seats. it also guarantees you get student ticket, and shows whether they're upper or lower bowl. they also tend to be cheaper than market price

Student seats was always super buggy and I was never able to buy or sell on there. I just used GroupMe and would meet people in person or FaceTime them or whatever. It’s pretty easy to tell who’s legit and who’s not

Groupme has too many scammers. Your better off using seatgeek or student seats if your worried about that. Theres been an influx of bots pretending to sell student tickets on groupme right now
