Toledo 13, UM 10. :slappy:

All I could do was laugh when the clock ran out. Seriously, just laugh.

It wasn't fun like the Appalachian State game. The game kinda just ended and laughter ensued. Toledo tried to do all they could to let Michigan win, and the boys in Blue had none of it.

But this should be an awesome atmosphere in Cleveland. I'm disappointed it isn't at the Glass Bowl!

Football: OSU-Toledo tickets to be sold Monday
Tuesday, July 21, 2009

THE COLUMBUS DISPATCH

More than 6,000 tickets for Ohio State's game against Toledo in Cleveland Browns Stadium will go on sale at the University of Toledo ticket office at 9 a.m. Monday.

Toledo officials announced the sale yesterday in a news release, saying tickets for the Sept. 19 game will be available for $55 and $45. It is classified as a Rockets home game.

The release said that the tickets will be available only at the school's athletic ticket office, and that no online or phone orders will be accepted.

Toledo students with a current identification card will be allowed to purchase two tickets for $25 each, and more at full price.

The crowd in the 73,000-seat stadium is expected to be decidedly in Ohio State's favor. The Buckeyes last played a "road game" in Cleveland in 1991, when Northwestern allowed promoters to move a home game to the old Cleveland Municipal Stadium. Northwestern lost the game but got most of the gate.

Toledo is expected to reap about $4 million from the gate.

Rob Oller commentary: Toledo ticket sale betrays 'donors' from Ohio State

The ticket stub strikes again. Interesting how such a thin piece of cardboard can manipulate the emotions so thoroughly. Either you're sitting near the 50 or in the nosebleeds. You either paid too much or got a great deal.

Or, perhaps, in the case of the Sept. 19 game between Ohio State and Toledo in Cleveland Browns Stadium, you have your precious ticket but feel used by the way it was procured.

A refresher and a follow-up: Toledo, being the designated home team, controls 58,000 tickets, while Ohio State received 12,500, which will be used by season ticket-holders, donors and staff.

Rather than hold a public sale, Toledo originally chose to sell its allotment only to UT season ticket-holders or donors to its athletic department. The donation amount simply to gain the option to buy tickets began at $100.

So OSU fans could purchase tickets by becoming Toledo season ticket-holders for about $130 or by becoming financial boosters of Rockets athletics, which undoubtedly has happened. Toledo's new donors number a higher-than-normal 240, attributable in part to OSU fan support.

This game is aired only on regional and Gameplan?

That doesn't make any sense, I was under the impression that since the advent of the B10NET that gameplan no longer got the rights to B10 games? I suppose it could be because this is considered a Toledo home game...hmmm...

Well, here's hoping it ends up on ESPN2 or ESPN ALT or something, I'd hate to pay $30 to watch this one game:)

It's not a Big Ten game. It's a MAC game. Home team retains television rights.
