Ranking the most expensive Big 12 college football tickets in 2025
The college football season is right around the corner, and many fans across the country are planning trips to see their favorite team in action this fall.
The cost of that trip depends on several factors, but you will need game tickets regardless of how you get to the stadium.
Folsom Field, home of the Colorado Buffaloes, will be sold out for most of the season, having already sold out the home opener and all 2025 season tickets.
With Deion Sanders and the Buffs generating so much popularity, attending a Colorado home game can come at a hefty price.
Using information from Vivid Seats, we dug in to figure out which Big 12 games have the most expensive get-in price each week of the 2025 season. Some games may surprise you, as not every top-flight game is the most costly.
So without further ado, here are the priciest Big 12 games each week of the 2025 season, ranked from most expensive to least expensive get-in price.
Week 3: Pitt at West Virginia
Get-in price: $261
Runner-up: Utah at Wyoming ($84)
Rivalry games are one of the best things about college football, but they will cost you a pretty penny to get a seat. The Backyard Brawl is a great one and should not disappoint this year.
Week 9: Colorado at Utah
Get-in price: $232
Runner-up: Kansas State at Kansas and Oklahoma State at Texas Tech ($142)
Colorado-Utah, known as the Rumble in the Rockies, is a tightly contested rivalry series. Utah leads 35-33-3 all-time, but is coming off a blowout loss last season. The Utes will be hoping Rice-Eccles and their fans lead them to a revenge win in 2025.
Week 8: Utah at BYU
Get-in price: $225
Runner-up: Cincinnati at Oklahoma State ($102)
The Holy War is one of the best rivalries in the Big 12, and it seems never to disappoint. It won't be a cheap ticket this year.
Week 2: Kansas at Missouri
Get-in price: $223
Runner-up: Iowa at Iowa State ($122)
Kansas and Missouri have not met since 2011, and the two fan bases seem ready to reignite the rivalry.
Week 4: Wyoming at Colorado
Get-in price: $195
Runner-up: BYU at East Carolina ($98)
Another factor contributing to the high cost of certain college football games is the proximity of opposing fans. Colorado and Wyoming are only two hours apart, making it an easy trip south for Cowboy fans. This game was the first 2025 Colorado home game to sell out.
Week 5: BYU at Colorado
Get-in price: $145
Runner-up: UCF at Kansas State ($115)
Another Colorado home game makes the list, and this one should not come as a surprise. A rematch of last season's Alamo Bowl, combined with the proximity of the two schools, led to an expensive ticket.
Week 1: Nebraska at Cincinnati
Get-in price: $145
Runner-up: Auburn at Baylor ($122)
Non-conference games always draw different crowds and often feature marquee opponents. Nebraska makes the trek to Cincinnati, and Bearcats fans seem all about their season-opening tilt.
Week 14: Colorado at Kansas State
Get-in price: $134
Runner-up: Texas Tech at West Virginia ($64)
If you plan to attend several Colorado football games this year, it won't be cheap whatsoever. The Buffs close out the regular season with a trip to Manhattan against a K-State team that could already be locked into the Big 12 title game.
Week 10: Texas Tech at Kansas State
Get-in price: $121
Runner-up: Arizona at Colorado ($109)
This Week 10 matchup could feature the two top teams in the Big 12. Texas Tech brought in one of college football's top transfer portal classes, and Kansas State enters the year with one of the best overall squads in the conference.
Week 7: Iowa State at Colorado
Get-in price: $110
Runner-up (tie): TCU at Kansas State ($110)
Iowa State is coming off an 11-win season, and Colorado fans are ready to welcome the Cyclones.
Week 13: Arizona State at Colorado
Get-in price: $99
Runner-up: Kansas State at Utah ($78)
This matchup levels up a notch if Colorado puts together a solid season up to Week 13. Still, the Sun Devils are the reigning conference champions, so everyone in Boulder wants to see them play.
Week 6: Colorado at TCU
Get-in price: $94
Runner-up: West Virginia at BYU ($87)
Notice a theme? Colorado is a popular team, and that is not changing anytime soon. This is the seventh Colorado game to make this list, and a rematch of a fantastic 2023 matchup in Fort Worth should be quite the scene.
Week 11: Colorado at West Virginia
Get-in price: $88
Runner-up: BYU at Texas Tech ($78)
Not the most exciting game you'll see all season, but a game that should be a good watch. Colorado and Deion Sanders traveling to the raucous Milan-Puskar Stadium will be a sight to behold.
Week 12: Kansas State at Oklahoma State
Get-in price: $70
Runner-up: TCU at BYU ($67)
Week 12 in the Big 12 doesn't bring an incredible slate of games to the table, thus being one of the cheapest weekends to attend a game. Depending on how well the Cowboys bounce back after a miserable 2024, the Wildcats coming to Boone-Pickens Stadium could be an interesting watch. Baylor versus Utah, with a get-in price of only $51, certainly has the potential to be the top conference game of the week.
