All,
Hard to believe, but we're basically 1/4 of the way through the season. Don't worry, things will pick up... but not this week as there isn't a single ranked team vs. ranked team on the B1G slate. Just preppin for the big games I guess. Let's gauge fan interest.
As always I checked ESPN's scoreboard and noted the 'Tickets as low as' value. And, this doesn't take into account fees and other expenses ticket sites tack on.
- Teams with Byes
- Indiana -- hard to believe, 3-9 in 2023, since then only two losses to the teams in the title game
- Iowa
- Oregon - wow, the only unspoiled addition to the B1G
- Rutgers
- USC
| Home | Away | As Low As | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Purdon't | Illinois | $24 | #Bert |
| Maryland | Washington | $41 | ehh |
| UCLA | PSU | $44 | #Slaughter |
| Nebraska | Mich St | $45 | |
| OSU | Minnesota | $61 | Under the Lights |
| Northwestern | UL Monroe | $97 | only -11.5 favorites to 2-2 ULM? |
| TCUN | Wisconsin | $113 | Fickell, sorry |
- McDonalds for 2 Division $24 - 1 Game
- Purdue hosts Illinois, it'd be higher if Illinois beat Indiana (ha!) then more fans would've travelled
- Denny's for 2 Division $41-$45 - 3 Games
- Washington has a pretty stadium, and a team that beats up the little guy. They will return to form.
- UCLA is bad, really really bad. PSU is good, really really good. -26.5 seems low to me.
- Nebraska fans always support the team... even if down on its luck MSU comes to town
- Let's go to Olive Garden Money ($61, $97) - 2 Games
- WOOHOO! night game at the shoe. Fox's heart grew three sizes this week.
- Northwestern prices are high because they play in a converted soccer field -- last's week's highlights of UCLA @ NW looked like a Div 2 crapfest
- 1 B1G Ticket item (>$100) - 1 Game
- TCUN fans must be high up on the program (hammer avoided) and the new QB.
- Fickell, sorry... life ain't fair.
