Ticket prices for Notre Dame vs. Indiana’s College Football Playoff matchup skyrocket

Hope you’ve been saving up to see this one live

As we found out on Sunday afternoon, Notre Dame football will be hosting the Indiana Hoosiers in the first-round of the College Football Playoff.

What we didn’t know was how the matchup would spike ticket prices for the game. Let’s get a bit of comparison, as there are three other teams hosting that weekend, when looking at the prices at StubHub.

Starting with the Tennessee Volunteers at the Ohio State Buckeyes, the current lowest ticket is $344. The Texas Longhorns are hosting the Clemson Tigers, with the lowest current ticket at $319. The final first-round game features the SMU Mustangs visiting the Penn State Nittany Lions, with a low ticket price of $147.

None of these other prices come even close to what you’d have to pay to see the Irish hosting the Hoosiers, as the current cheapest ticket is a whopping $974, almost three-times the highest other game. It’s safe to say that the excitement in South Bend is already getting high, as Notre Dame tries to win a National Championship for the first time since 1988.

Paratroopers land on the field before a NCAA college football game between Notre Dame and Florida State at Notre Dame Stadium on Saturday, Nov. 9, 2024, in South Bend.

Just how much are tickets to Texas A&M vs. Texas?

The tickets are going fast, but you’ll need deep pockets to attend Texas A&M vs. Texas

Texas A&M (8-3, 5-2 SEC) will enter the final week of the regular season with everything on the line postseason-wise, as the Aggies’ quadruple overtime loss to Auburn didn’t end the program’s College Football Playoff dreams.

During A&M’s overtime chaos against the Tigers, Alabama shockingly lost to lowly Oklahoma on the road, shaking up the SEC standings once again and making Saturday night’s Texas A&M vs. Texas rivalry an official bid to the SEC Title Game vs. Georgia.

With the added implications comes even more interest from both fan bases and even those in the area who may not have skin in the game but possess deep pockets and want to be a part of what could be one of the more epic showdowns in the football rivalry’s history.

According to StubHub, ticket prices are now maxing out at $4,211 to the low price (sarcasm) of $603 in the top 20 rows. Will this affect overall turnout? I highly doubt this, as Saturday’s game will be the first time both teams have faced each other since the 2011 season.

No. 19 Texas A&M will host No. 3 Texas on Saturday, Nov. 30 at 6:30 pm. CT. The game will air on ABC.

Commanders and Ravens are a hot Week 6 ticket

Ravens’ ticket prices prove the Commanders are must-see football right now.

The Baltimore Ravens (3-2) host the Washington Commanders (4-1) in the NFL’s most-anticipated Week 6 game.

Baltimore and Washington’s home stadiums are less than 45 miles apart, and with both teams playing well, fans want in on the action.

According to @TickPick on X, the cheapest ticket before the season was $91. Now, the current get-in price for Sunday’s game is $302. That’s an over 200% increase in price in six weeks.

Much of the excitement for the game centers around the quarterbacks. Washington rookie Jayden Daniels already looks like a superstar, having led the Commanders to four straight wins. On the other side, the Ravens and two-time reigning MVP Lamar Jackson is off to another phenomenal start.

The current average ticket price over the past week is $379, making it the most expensive regular-season game in Baltimore franchise history.

It’s been a long time, but it appears Washington football is indeed back, led by Daniels.

How much are tickets for Wisconsin football vs. Purdue Boilermakers?

How much are tickets for Wisconsin football vs. Purdue Boilermakers?

The Wisconsin Badgers return to the football field on Saturday against the Purdue Boilermakers.

Both teams are off to poor starts to the 2024 season. Wisconsin is 2-2 with two less-than-convincing wins against nonconference opponents, then two blowout losses to No. 1 Alabama and No. 11 USC.

Purdue, meanwhile, is 1-3 and just fired its offensive coordinator. It began the season with a 49-0 win over Indiana State. The next three games: 66-7 loss to No. 14 Notre Dame, 38-21 loss to Oregon State and Saturday’s 28-10 loss to Nebraska.

The matchup should give Wisconsin a much-needed opportunity to right the ship and point the season in a positive direction.

For those still looking to make the trip to Camp Randall Stadium to see Saturday’s contest, the ticket prices are only rising as we approach game time:

Date: Saturday, Oct. 5

Kickoff: Noon ET, 11 a.m. CT

Lowest price: $43

Median price: $107 (approximately)

Top price: $22,115

Tennessee adds talent fee to ticket prices

Tennessee to add 10 percent talent fee to ticket prices.

Tennessee announced an increase in ticket prices for the 2025 season via a talent fee surcharge. The talent fee will result in a 10% increase in cost of all season tickets, single-game tickets and donations.

Vol fans can renew season tickets beginning Thursday. The deadline to renew season tickets is Feb. 27, 2025. Tennessee is offering season ticket holders a 10-month payment plan.

The fee will fund a revenue-sharing pool for student-athletes. Revenue sharing with student-athletes could begin as early as 2025 as a result of the House v. NCAA lawsuit.

Terms of the settlement have not been finalized, but it is expected to permit athletic departments to directly compensate athletes up to $20 million.

SEC and Big Ten schools are expected to opt into the model.

Broncos increasing ticket prices by 7.9% in 2024

Coming off their eighth straight season of missing the playoffs, the Broncos are increasing ticket prices by nearly 8% in 2024.

Despite missing the playoffs for an eighth straight year and posting a losing record for a seventh straight season, the Denver Broncos are raising their ticket prices ahead of the 2024 campaign.

The Broncos started their season ticket renewal process last week and fans were informed that prices are increasing by an average of about 7.9% in 2024, according to KUSA-TV’s Mike Klis.

This comes after the team increased prices by more than 13% in 2023. So over the last two years, season ticket holders have seen their cost increase by an average of more than 20%.

Some fans have decided to opt out because of the increasing cost.

“I’m out after 27 years. Not renewing,” @bordesa1 wrote on Twitter/X last week. “Small increase here, another there….no big deal, right? Well…since 2016, the first Post-PFM Year of Suck, my cost is up 34%.”

The Broncos, of course, aren’t hurt by fans opting out because the club has a 100,000-person waitlist of fans hoping to one day buy season tickets.

The average price per game for 2024 season tickets is about $143. The average price per ticket was about $132 last year. One day, Denver’s increases might price too many fans out. For now, though, the waitlist demonstrates that the demand is there, and the Broncos will exploit it.

Sun Bowl: Ticket Prices High on Secondary Market

Who out there is headed to the game?

The 2023 Sun Bowl pits two teams that have met just twice all-time, both in bowl games, together.  Notre Dame will serve as the home team in El Paso as they take on Oregon State.

Oregon State has won the previous two meetings between programs – the 2001 Fiesta Bowl and the 2004 Insight Bowl.

Notre Dame coming to a rare sight for the Fighting Irish helped make this game a sellout in rather short order.  However, the secondary market remains possible for tickets if you plan to be near El Paso next week.

You can get into the game with tickets on SeatGeek for just $14.  That will get you an end zone seat.

[afflinkbutton text=”See Tony the Tiger Sun Bowl tickets” link=”https://seatgeek.pxf.io/LXy7mo”]

If you have significantly deeper pockets, $700 will get you a seat on the 50-yard line roughly halfway up behind the Notre Dame bench.

The current capacity of the Sun Bowl is listed at 46,670 and you can bet that nearly all of those will be filled on December 29.

Current ticket prices for Alabama-Michigan Rose Bowl CFP semifinal

If you plan on going to the Rose Bowl CFP semifinal between Alabama and Michigan, be prepared to open up your wallet.

Top-ranked Michigan and No. 4 Alabama are set to face off in the historic Rose Bowl, which serves as a College Football Playoff semifinal this season. These two programs are some of the biggest brands in the game with the largest fan bases. Surely, the fans would want to come out to Pasadena in droves to support their respective team.

As Lee Corso always says, “Not so fast, my friend!”

If you plan on attending the Rose Bowl, the cheapest ticket you’ll be able to find on SeatGeek is a whopping $485 a piece, and the site is rating this a 9.7/10 “amazing deal.”

However, if money isn’t an issue and you want the best seats available, be ready to pay up. While most lower-level seats are available between $1,000 and $2,500, the most expensive tickets can be purchased for $5,110 each.

The game is expected to be a great one, which is the reason why this is the most expensive bowl game this season. Some fans prefer to watch the game from the comfort of their own home, or perhaps their local sports bar. Others, though, look forward to dropping some cash to experience the thrill of the College Football Playoff in person.

[afflinkbutton text=”Shop Rose Bowl tickets at Seat Geek” link=”https://seatgeek.pxf.io/R5N7bv”]

The winner of the Rose Bowl will move on to the national championship game in Houston, where they will face the winner of the Sugar Bowl between No. 2 Washington and No. 3 Texas.

Current ticket prices for Wisconsin vs. LSU in the ReliaQuest Bowl

Current ticket prices for Wisconsin vs. LSU in the ReliaQuest Bowl

Luke Fickell got the Badgers into a New Year’s Day bowl game in this first season as head coach, just not the New Year’s Day game you necessarily want to be in.

It will be the 7-5 Badgers and No. 13 9-3 LSU Tigers in the ReliaQuest Bowl in Tampa, Florida.

For those considering a trip and wondering about the ticket prices, it doesn’t appear to be the toughest ticket in the world to get.

As of Tuesday, December 19, SeatGeek has tickets listed from $51 to $1,334. Raymond James Stadium in Tampa does not lack for space, so numerous second-level seats are going for under $100.

[afflinkbutton text=”Shop ReliaQuest Bowl tickets at Seat Geek” link=”https://seatgeek.pxf.io/y2PYkG”]

The ReliaQuest Bowl, formally known as the Hall of Fame Bowl and the Outback Bowl, has been won by the Badgers twice: a 34-20 victory over Duke in 1995 and the famous 34-31 overtime victory over Auburn in 2015.

It may not be the game Badgers fans hoped for at the start of the season. But knowing how both the LSU and Wisconsin fanbases travel, I’d expect an underrated atmosphere in Tampa for the game.

Current ticket pricing for Oklahoma Sooners vs. Arizona Wildcats in the Alamo Bowl

A look at the current ticket prices for the Oklahoma Sooners showdown vs. the Arizona Wildcats.

This year’s Alamo Bowl holds special significance. It will be the first start of Jackson Arnold’s Sooners’ career when Oklahoma takes on the Arizona Wildcats in San Antonio.

That has created an extra buzz about the game. How will Oklahoma’s new QB1 perform under the bright lights heading into 2024, a season in which Arnold is expected to be the starter for the Sooners?

Well, if you’re still looking for seats to the Alamo Bowl, Seat Geek has great options available for you.

Tickets range anywhere from $42 to $464, depending on where you want to sit. If you want to sit on the 50-yard line behind Oklahoma’s bench, it’s gonna cost you quite a bit more than if you were willing to sit behind the Wildcats. Those seats are running as high as $322.

While the seats behind the teams cost a pretty penny, you can still find lower level seats under $100.
