How much do tickets cost for the Cotton Bowl? Ohio State vs Texas

Almost 80,000 fans are expected to attend Friday’s Cotton Bowl college football clash as the Texas Longhorns face Ohio State Buckeyes with a place in the January 20 final on the line.

Thursday’s Orange Bowl final in Florida saw Notre Dame edge out Penn State 27-24 in a tightly fought contest but for the game in Arlington, Ohio State are the heavily fancied team to progres.

The Cotton Bowl Classic will be the fourth all-time matchup between Ohio State and Texas. As things stand, the Longhorns leads the head-to-head series 2-1, having won the teams’ most recent meeting, a 24-21 victory in 2009.

Tickets for the Arlington game

With Friday’s Cotton Bowl Classic officially a sell-out, any fans in the Arlington area anxious to watch the action at close-call will have to look at the secondary-ticket market.

Seat Geek do have a small amount of match tickets on sale with the cheapest starting at $173 for the upper tier (Sector 411). For any NCAA fans with no budget concerns, a ticket in sector C111 behind the Buckeyes bench will set you back $2,367.

Despite this significant outlay, fans will have an ideal perspective of the action as well as being able to see the activity on the Ohio State bench first-hand.
