Kitton...Toledo had a premium section at $60...but the average ticket priced appeared to be about $30.

They were $70 dollars for Iowa State between the 40's and $60 dollars between the 30's on the home side.

For all other games it was $60 between the 40's and $50 between the 30's. A lot of those cheap sections are mostly family pack sales so the walk up fan buying tickets at the stadium might not have access to them.

Even at Eastern Michigan where the tickets are $20 is making $300,000 per home football game. The idea the MAC is making 200k/300k of revenue is completely false.

Ohio's tickets were $44-$49 for Marshall this year with no youth tickets or exceptions. Chairback seats are $63 per game and sold out for the season. Go back 15-20 years ago and you could have cut the tickets out from a Kroger's bag.

MAC schools are pushing the price of the tickets up to increase revenue over expanding seating capacities. They are building up their booster clubs and building facilities. Ohio's got another big facility about to go up soon at the stadium. MAC facilities are more normative to what you'd find at CUSA and MWC schools than FCS level which is what they were 20-25 years ago.
