U-M vs. Utah is 2nd-priciest ticket in nation (Freep article)

Submitted by Blue Indy on

Article says that UM/Utah tix are going for an average of $368, second only to Texas/ND at around $600.

Also of note is this quote, "The effect of new U-M coach Jim Harbaugh will be felt on ticket prices all season. Michigan's overall home ticket sales are soaring, and the secondary market is up 52%, for a home-game average of $171.14, the ninth-highest of all college football."

Found this for the top ten:

  1. Notre Dame: $332.09
  2. Georgia: $235.47
  3. Texas A&M: $200.69
  4. Tennessee: $199.46
  5. Ohio State: $197.79
  6. Baylor: $183.84

This only cofirms that I should have bought all the teickets I could at sub $200 6 months ago.

Man, with that and going back to buy Apple stock in 1985, things would really be different for me.

I can't think of a more surreal "these teams used to be gret but are kinda coasting on past success" quite like ND-Texas, an this is coming from a UM fan who absolutely gets how obnoxious this fanbase can be about decades-ago accomplishments.
