Arkansas beat Mississippi State 28-14 Saturday to clinch the Southeastern Conference Western Division championship.
The Hogs will now play Florida in the SEC Championship Game Dec. 2, in Atlanta.
Student tickets for the game will go on sale at 8:30 this morning at the Razorback Ticket Office.
Student tickets for the event are $35. Students can bring up to 10 student IDs with them to the office.
"Four years ago it took about two or three days to sell out (of student tickets)," said Arkansas Ticket Manager Mark Scobey. "There is so much excitement this year that I don't expect them to last past Monday."
Arkansas has not played in the SEC Championship Game since 2002, a 30-3 loss to Georgia.
Scobey said that the SEC allots each school 15,000 tickets for the game.
Scobey said that 1,000 tickets are held for students and at a discounted rate. Regular tickets for the game are $60.
Arkansas has one game left before the title game. The Hogs will host LSU Friday in Little Rock. Tickets for that game are sold out, Scobey said.
Scobey said that all other tickets allotted to the UA for the title game sold out last Monday. Those are priority tickets with season-ticket holders getting the first chance at purchasing them.
Scobey said that service would move along faster today if students did check or cash transactions.
Arkansas and Florida have met once before in the SEC Championship Game. The Gators beat the Hogs 34-3 in 1995.

A group of ticket holders, including myself, should rent a bus or something and party the entire way to Atlanta. Who is with me?
