Michigan vs. Michigan State is setting up to be the best game of Week 9 in college football. The Spartans and Wolverines are in the top 10 of the AP Poll and undefeated at 7-0 (4-0 in B1G play).
This is the first time that both teams are meeting as top 10 foes since 1964. The 2 premier college football pregame shows, ESPN’s College GameDay and FOX’s Big Noon Kickoff are in East Lansing for the colossal matchup.
The ticket prices are now the most expensive ticket prices of the weekend, surpassing No. 5 Ohio State vs. No. 20 Penn State and The World’s Largest Outdoor Cocktail Party between No. 1 Georgia and Florida. According to Tony Paul with the Detroit News, tickets to get into Spartan Stadium are just shy of $300:
Per @TickPick, UM-MSU has become the most-expensive college game of the week, with an average price of $292 — $1 more than Ohio State-Penn State. The current get-in price for UM-MSU is $262, up $40 from few days ago.
