  "account": "Tennessee football has announced that it will increase season ticket prices by 4% for the 2027 season. Season-ticket holders were informed of this in an email on September 6, following the team's 56-9 victory over Furman at the start of the 2026 season. UT thanked its supporters for their part in the Vols' dominant season-opening performance on Rocky Top. The email warned that the price increase is part of a broader trend at Tennessee, where the Volunteers consistently sell out Neyland Stadium games. Ticket prices rose by 4.5% in 2025 and 4% in 2026. Season-ticket renewals for the 2027 season will commence soon and remain open until February 25, allowing fans to manage costs over time through monthly payments. The 10% talent fee, instituted before the 2025 season, remains in place for the 2027 season. The email emphasized that continued support is crucial for the success of Tennessee Athletics, noting that contributions from football season tickets and the Tennessee Fund directly aid student-athletes and provide essential resources for competitive play.
