The band won't be traveling to Austin, UA confirmed in a statement shared with The Tuscaloosa News. No. 1 Alabama faces No. 22 Texas on Saturday (11 a.m., FOX).

"Due to the seating location and configuration of the visiting institution's ticket allotment at Darrell K Royal-Texas Memorial Stadium, the Million Dollar Band will not make the trip this weekend for the Alabama at Texas football game," the statement read.

This is the first time the band won't be traveling with the football team since the 2020 season, when attendance was greatly limited because of the COVID-19 pandemic.

This isn't the first time there has been discussion about marching band seating locations at Texas games. Attention was brought to LSU's band having to sit high up for a 2019 game.

I hear gas is expensive these days.

Sips are not going to be able to do that when they get to the SEC.
They are in for a rude awakening.
So petty.
You were Texas

Maybe we can put the sip band in upper deck at Olsen Field?

This. It's gonna be fun watching tu deal with a conference they don't call the shots in.

sip is soon going to find itself in meetings where everybody in the room is either eye rolling at their hubris or telling them to shut their pie holes and to cast their vote when told to do so. The only rep present with any sympathy at all would have been OU, but they no longer need sip to bully for their own self-interest because it doesn't work that way anymore.

The thought of this pleases me greatly.

This happened to A&M during the discussion of admitting OU and Texas to the SEC.

I fully believe that tu thinks that by 2030 they will be running the SEC like they did the SWC and B12.

Good. Bands just are disrupt opposing offenses.

It appears they have a formula for just such a thing, that they've been able to refine over the years. Who's to say they won't?

BREAKING: I know it's early, but I'm expecting a flash flood warning to go into effect at 11 AM on Saturday in Austin.

A mix of longhorn sweat and tears will lead to rapidly rising water levels in DKR. Please plan accordingly! Turn Around, Don't Play Bama #atxwx pic.twitter.com/NMR1d8zXKT

I'm just happy for the Alabama band cuz they won't have to worry about getting attacked by a monkeypox riddled homeless dude before the game.
