University of Minnesota football season ticket holders are now able to renew their seats for the 2018 season. Renewals started this week and will run through May 1, 2018.
New season tickets are also on-sale now with season ticket packages starting as low as $35 per game. Season tickets for 2018 will have zero increases and some areas will see a price reduction.
The Gophers will play seven home games in 2018 and five of those will be against teams who will play in a 2017 bowl game.
Minnesota starts the 2018 season on Aug. 30 against New Mexico State and will then host Fresno State on Sept. 8 and Miami (Ohio) on Sept. 15.
The Maroon and Gold begin Big Ten play with a trophy game for Homecoming on Oct. 6 as they will battle Iowa for the coveted Floyd of Rosedale. The Gophers then welcome Indiana to TCF Bank Stadium for the first time ever on Friday, Oct. 26. Minnesota closes out its home schedule with Big Ten West foes Purdue (Nov. 10) and Northwestern (Nov. 17).
The Gophers are expected to enter the second season of the P.J. Fleck era with the highest ranked recruiting class in school history. National singing day is Dec. 20, 2017, and Minnesota currently has a Top 25 class and the highest-ranked class in the Big Ten West division.
