UH men’s basketball team vs. Texas game is second-hottest Coogs ticket in a decade

The University of Houston men’s basketball team is set to host Texas for the first time since 2001 on Saturday.

This matchup is likely the last time Houston hosts UT, as the Longhorns will depart the Big 12 Conference for the Southeastern Conference next season.

The average sale price of tickets for this game on the Vivid Seats marketplace is $179, marking it as the second hottest UH men’s basketball home game ticket in the last decade. The upcoming Kansas vs.

Houston game, scheduled for next month, has tickets selling for over $250 on Vivid Seats, making it the priciest in recent history.

The UH team currently holds a tie for first place in the Big 12 and is ranked No. 3 in the nation, maintaining an undefeated record at Fertitta Center this season (13-0).
