If you want to catch the best college football games in-person, you usually have to pay a pretty penny – especially early in the year. Before the season starts, every fan base has hope that their program is going to have a magical season and hoist the BCS National Championship trophy in January. Then, after a few losses, expectations (and ticket prices) start to come back down to earth.
There are some great matchups slated for the first weekend of the college football season. But which do fans want to attend the most, and how can that be determined? We took a shot at it by looking at the cheapest ticket prices still available for every college football game during the first week.
