The University of Cincinnati athletic department announced on Friday, Oct. 23, 2026, that tickets for the Homecoming matchup against Texas Tech are officially sold out. The game is scheduled for Saturday, Oct. 24, 2026, at Nippert Stadium.
The capacity crowd for the Texas Tech game represents the first sellout of the 2026 season for Cincinnati. This is the program's first sellout since the home finale against BYU took place last year.
The University of Cincinnati has established a strong tradition of sellouts in recent years. During the 2023 season, the Bearcats completed a streak of 18 consecutive sellouts at Nippert Stadium. In the 2025 campaign, the program recorded three sellouts, filling the stands for Big 12 matchups against Iowa State, Baylor, and BYU.
For those unable to attend, Verified Resale Tickets are available through Ticketmaster, the program's resale partner.
