‘Political Rewind’ replay: The politics of tonight’s Georgia-Alabama game

The average ticket sold on the most frequented resale sites is up over $2,300 ($2,319 on StubHub, $2,413 on Vivid Seats).
The consensus: A high-dollar crowd isn’t likely to be terribly rude to the president. But maybe some noise will come from the student section.
