With the MAC canceling football I decided to do a little math to figure out just how bad it is for some of the bigger college football programs with no fans this year. WOW.
Ohio State has a 105,000 seat stadium that sells out every time. The average face value ticket price for 2019 was $178. With no fans, Ohio State loses $130 million in lost revenue for the season, just in ticket sales alone. That’s not counting concessions which probably throws another 2 to 6 million into the lost revenue column. Insane!
