Iowa vs. Oregon Matchup Officially Sells Out

The Iowa Hawkeyes' highly anticipated Big Ten matchup against No. 6 Oregon on November 8 is officially sold out, marking Kinnick Stadium's 26th consecutive sellout dating back to the start of the 2022 season.

Iowa has sold out all six of its home games during the 2025 season, yet the Oregon game took longer to reach capacity compared to previous marquee matchups. The primary reason for the delayed sellout was elevated single-ticket prices for premium games against Oregon and Penn State.

The Penn State game also faced similar pricing pressures before ultimately selling out. These two contests represented the most expensive single-ticket experiences of Iowa's home schedule. On platforms like Vivid Seats, the average ticket price for the Oregon matchup was around $330, with entry-level seats starting at approximately $164.

The other sellout includes games against UAlbany (August 30), UMass (September 13), Indiana (September 27), Penn State (October 18), and Minnesota (October 25).

The electric atmosphere at the 65,000-seat Kinnick Stadium attracts recruits and intimidates the opposing teams. Several top prospects from the Class of 2027 and Class of 2028 are scheduled to visit Iowa City for the nationally televised contest against the sixth-ranked Ducks.
