With Western Michigan In Cotton Bowl, Tickets Are Dirt Cheap

If you want to attend this year's Cotton Bowl between Western Michigan and Wisconsin, you can do so for six bucks.
That's the minimum price for a ticket on Stubhub, and it's only going down.
The dirt-cheap prices are partly a product of the game being held in Dallas, a long trip for the local fanbases of each team. It can also be attributed to the lack of Western Michigan's national appeal. Despite finishing the season undefeated, the Broncos simply don't have the same luster as the typical Cotton Bowl participant.
For comparison's sake, here is the minimum ticket price (via Stubub) for each of the five other New Year's Six bowl games.
Orange Bowl (Miami)
No. 6 Michigan (10-2) vs. No. 11 Florida State (9-3): $125
Sugar Bowl (New Orleans)
No. 7 Oklahoma (10-2) vs. No. 14 Auburn (8-4): $86
Rose Bowl (Pasadena)
No. 9 USC (9-3) vs. No. 5 Penn State (11-2): $227
Peach Bowl (Atlanta)
No. 1 Alabama (13-0) vs. No. 4 Washington (12-1): $135
Fiesta Bowl (Glendale)
No. 2 Clemson (12-1) vs. No. 3 Ohio State (11-1): $67
