Question about tickets

[MikeyHookEm]

Hi yall! For tickets to games like Ohio State, when is the best time to purchase the tickets? I’m scared if I wait until the day before there will be none left for resale. If anyone has any tricks please let me know! 
 

thank you!

Agree, it’s harder now that there aren’t actual physical tickers, but if you’re at a decent tailgate I’ve always had good luck getting tickets off people. You’re also going to have to purchase tickets mainly through stun hub or something similar. The prices go way down right after kickoff and with all the TV there you wouldn’t miss much of the actual game. Just know that it’s not going to be cheap. I sold my extra Bama ticket in 2022 in the first quarter for 175 (face of 65).

I would think this is the lowest they're going to be. There will always be some left on the secondary markets day of but they're going to jack the prices up big time. The 2024 Texas/UGA game was nuts. Even after kickoff some of the upper deck get-in price was still $600+.

I already have my AirBNB booked, I'm coming with or without tickets.

My plan right now is that I have a couple season ticket holders put in for the lottery through Ohio State for me. Tickets would be face value ($280 a ticket).

If neither of those are selected in the lottery (I think I should be fine), then my plan is monitor the prices and by the day before the game on TickPick.

If you are located anywhere near Austin, I would join Texas ticket exchange groups on Facebook. Buy off of there, but meet up in person to make the exchange.

I will say, I had buddies who did this for the Notre Dame @ Ohio State game in 2023. I was amazed when there were no tickets to be found. There were no listings on TM/SH anything from about 3pm on...game was at 7:30

Sounds like I’ll be purchasing tickets in the next 2 months haha
