Oh also, buy off the OSU student Facebook page if you're going for cheapest. Plenty of OSU students sell their tickets for $80-100 for the Michigan game. You would need a student ID, and you either arrange to borrow theirs for the three hours or buy them out of it for an additional $25. Some ushers won't check for BuckIDs. Some will. All luck of the draw.

I always scalp from UM fans. If there are only two of you. Get there early go up to any Wolverine fans and ask for extras. You will sit with the Michigan fans and actually enjoy yourself. Trust me I have been there many times, ok at least six different times thats the way we did it. This is how we do it....

We got tickets at least 4 different times from Alums a couple years in a row two years later from students/fans I don't know they sold us our tickets got some spending cash abd we got in and sat with the Michigan alumnus and fans section in fact we were a couple of rows from Elvis Grbacs parents. We were donned in our Michigan gear head to toe and I think they were impressed that we drove down to Columbus without tickets. It's cheap they won't charge you much more than face value.
Do what you want but this is what me and my brother did it..
Edit I agree with below that was bad advise don'y sit with OSU students like I said above

Honestly, that's really bad advice.
You will be abused in the student section.
I'm someone who generally thinks that the "OSU fans will kill you in the stadium" talk is totally overrated. I went to the 2014 game (as a current student, with other current Michigan students) and even when we were winning that game for half the second quarter we were treated mostly fine. Although someone threw trash at my group of friends (2 guys, 3 girls) in the concourse at halftime when the game was tied.
I think sitting anywhere in the stadium is fine, except for the student section. Especially as someone who is college aged. If you were older they would leave you alone more, but you will be gone after, especially if you cheer and we win.
Student sections at any school, but especially at OSU for the biggest rivalry game, are not a good idea for opposing fans unless you know a student, or preferably students, and can sit with them so they can protect you from harassement.
If you do end up going to sit in the student section, you will not be able to cheer as much as you would if you were in the normal seats, which is another big reason to avoid it.
You really should've bought them in April from U of M. Students get a special deal and you're in the away Michigan section (goes for any Michigan away game).
If you want to go to The Game, you are going to have to spend a large sum of money. You just have to accept it.

Open a cooler? Don't even bring one, unless you want it shat in. You don't need to be bringing Ohio bacteria back here.
August 13th, 2016 at 8:54 PM ^
students can order away game tickets in april or may sometime... you should do that.
I went to MSU, purdue, ND, OSU, and wiscy when I was a student... good times.

I was going there during the Cooper era. They still call you a bunch of childish names and tell you that they will win. Even after being beat seven games in a row. But we still can win and enjoy The Game no matter what they yell at you.

Find this moron after the game and egg him with like a half dozen eggs. Then run for your life.

This guy was in front of us in my section last year. Buckeye nuthuggers all posing with him.

How can he be an embarassment to THEE ohio, not possible. Now, if they are able to produce a Nobel prive winner, then that would be an embarassment to THEE ohio.
Even she is not an embarassment to THEE ohio....

But you my friend have never been to the toilet bowl. They clone guys like that down there. They are everywhere on tv the night before all up and down high street. If you dare go into the 7-11 across the street like we did you will see at least five you will swear were in bred. The line for beer goes around the whole store like Best Buy on Black Friday......

It is always cheapest the week before. Unless we are literally both undefeated, and maybe even not then, prices on Stubhub are always highest in the summer/very far in advance.
Also, if you want to go to The Game, you have to spend a lot of money. That's just the way it is.
This is no Illinois road game.

I will say though that the taxes on gasoline are a shade lower in Ohio, so if you were truly wanting to make the trip on the cheap, Lucas County tends to atl least constitute something of a "neutral zone" of sorts between fandoms. As a matter of pride during Hate Week though, yeah, fill up in Michigan.

Wear a helmet to protect yourself from beer bottles. Probably bring some antibacterial wipes to help when they spit on & throw food at you.
Make sure all your shots are up to date!
