and try to get tickets for the semi finals outside the stadium? I know Monday would be pretty easy but I'm wondering about the semi finals. I've already booked a hotel room for Saturday but am now scrambling to find tickets. Any thoughts or suggestions? Preferably helpful ones?

Be patient and don't jump the gun...I would be Calling Nova and find out when unused tix go to general public and they will probably have the smallest following.....Once the excitement settles Thursday/ Friday you will have better insight to getting tix.

I was in Atlanta in 2013. I already had tickets before I got there, but I followed some sites and people from this board who were trying to dump extras the day of to see if I could improve on my 300 level seats. The NCAA ticket exchange would have allowed me to sell my tickets for less than face value if I found better ones. I don't recall seeing many on the streets selling tickets per-game. But that's not to say they won't be there, I just think there are too many options for you to use to have to wait for game day. If you find someone from this board for instance, then you have to agree on a meeting time and place, have all the cash to hand over, and find them in a sea of revelers outside the stadium, so for me the logistics favor getting tickets ahead of time.

Good luck.

I've done it. Not that hard to get bad seats but you'll be watching the game on the video board.
 
Went to Atlanta in 2013. Me and my buddy are very good with hustling tickets outside, but there was next to nothing even available. To say we got lucky is an understatement.

Don't show up to Houston without them. Not worth the risk. Stubhub has killed the secondary market outside events.
 
FYI: Monday is no longer that easy. Prices were through the roof on Monday evening in Atl. I was too depressed and sold my tix for $250 before I left the GA dome on Sat night - but my dad sold his for $400ish Monday evening.

Yeah you have to hustle by going to team hotels and high traffic bars and restaurants etc.

That was an exception based on Louisville and Michigan having large fan base and driving distance. I was going to go to the game and a Michigan fan offered me $600 ea. I laughed handed over the tix and went to the bar....It really depends on the teams playing and proximity for people to travel last minute and get down there quickly. UL and UM might have been the perfect storm!
 
Thanks for all the insight! Greatly appreciated. Looking forward to getting out with a bunch of fellow orange fans Saturday!
