Ticket, Travel Costs Result in Excess of Ohio State Tickets Available for Fiesta Bowl Against Notre Dame

Ohio State fans travel well to watch their football team play, but sales for this season's final game aren't going as they normally do for big-time road affairs.

The Buckeyes are set to take on Notre Dame in the Fiesta Bowl New Year's Day in Glendale, Arizona. With the matchup being a glorified exhibition game—in the sense that the winner doesn't advance to a national title game—having to travel from Ohio across two time zones to watch a game you could see on television is keeping some fans away.

Buckeye fans have only scooped up around 9,000 of the schools' allotted 12,500 tickets for the Fiesta Bowl, according to a Wednesday report by the Toledo Blade.
