Purdue coach Barry Odom’s Preseason Camp Day 1 observations

Purdue coach Barry Odom talked about incremental progress as the Boilermakers began preseason camp practice on Thursday.

After a 1-11 record in 2024, Purdue football‘s gameday costs plummeted, according to a study.

Oddspedia tracked the average cost of attending a college football game in 2025 and found Purdue‘s gameday cost at Ross-Ade Stadium decreased from $240 to $163 for the upcoming season (a 32.1% year-over-year decrease). The study tracked the costs of two tickets, two beers, two sodas, two hot dogs and parking.

However, if you’re eyeing a hot dog at Ross-Ade, it will be among the most expensive in college football. Oddspedia noted a hot dog will cost $17 in 2025 at a Boilermakers‘ game. Appalachian State ranked No. 1 with a $24 hot dog.

How Notre Dame football ranked in Oddspedia’s study

On the opposite end of Purdue is Notre Dame, which is the fourth-most expensive gameday experience.

Oddspedia noted the total cost at Notre Dame Stadium in 2025 would be $291. It marked a 16.2% year-over-year increase from 2024. Colorado was No. 1 at $302.
