It’s gonna be ugly. Michigan is the new Georgia, but they play like an early 90’s Dr. Tom Roid Squad.

Boy that Nick is a 'Sly Devil'. ( ͡~ ͜ʖ ͡°) Is this cheating? No ...but
I would have thought that someone at the @NCAA should have blocked this in the name of “player safety”!

Interesting read on Rose Bowl tickets at mgo. Basically, tickets are wildly over-priced. That is because brokers (with M and probably UAT, as co-conspirators) control the market. Here's where we are as the writing of the article at mgo:
The last 48 hours have seen the first drop in price this month. The get-in price for a single ticket dropped from $711 to $673 (-5%), the get-in price for two tickets dropped from $717 to $664 (-7%) The average list price dropped from $1,506 to $1,317 (-13%).
If you're patient, they'll go down more. How far and the quality of the view from seats that are left isn't predictable. That they will get cheaper and that they will be shitty seats is a given.
Sponsor Note: Thank TicketIQ, our longtime ticket sponsors, and specifically Greg Cohen, who's the reader there who's been like "I am throwing money at you; please write a Ticket Watch." Greg is also throwing money at YOU: if you use the code MGO50 through the end of this month you'll get $50 off your purchase at TicketIQ. The thing about TicketIQ is the price they say is the price you pay. This makes a big difference for an expensive game like this, because the fees get jacked. For example the get-in at Stubhub says "$539" right now but when you get to checkout that ticket is $732, whereas it's $702 at TicketIQ. Section 6 Row 75 on Seatgeek is $1041 at checkout, $954 on IQ. Section 2 Row 57 is $933 on Vivid, six rows down is $819 on IQ. Anyway if you're going to buy a ticket on the secondary market, always try our friends first. Greg even said you can reach out to him personally at Greg@ticketiq.com if you find a better deal on the same seats. ------------------------ THE GRANDADDY [UM Bentley Historical Library] This is my first Rose Bowl. It apparently is for a lot of other people too; Greg mentioned 75% of their buyers are Michigan fans. Bama fans travel well, but they've been to a lot of games, and Michigan hasn't been to Pasadena in a long time, so we are why the prices are historically high for this one. Via Greg, we've already passed the price peak. The market gets wild when the game is announced, and this one got particularly wild because Michigan fans got a head start and then Alabama fans were all unleashed at once. Prices shot up by 68% in the first few days after the game was announced, and peaked a few days ago as people rushed to secure seats to the game before seats on a plane. Greg: The last 48 hours have seen the first drop in price this month. The get-in price for a single ticket dropped from $711 to $673 (-5%), the get-in price for two tickets dropped from $717 to $664 (-7%) The average list price dropped from $1,506 to $1,317 (-13%).
