Several sections have sold out and many others are getting close. I'm positive the students are going to pack the student section.

Wyoming fans are coming out of the woodwork for this one.

Get your tickets while you still can.

I'll stand by the prediction of about 15K tops. Right now the die hard 10K who are going to be there regardless are buying. I think it'll be slowing down pretty quick.

We're already over 15K. This one is selling faster than AFA did, and that one ended up at 27K.

I defer to CJ on matters of attendance. Good to hear that there's going to be a good crowd.

There are barely any tickets available on the entire east side of the stadium. I understand that the season ticket holders will be offered their tickets first, and those that aren't claimed wont go on sale until later in the week, but this looks really promising. I imagine the season ticket holders will claim the majority of their tickets.

This is hard to estimate, because the process is different, but we are going to beat SDSU's 20,000 they put in the seats for last years MWC championship game. That, I'm sure.

We're on pace to have a really big crowd.

Section A (visiting fans) will be empty, and so will top corners on West side. Should be full everywhere else. 20k is a very conservative guess.

Should we play it safe and sacrifice a CSU sheep in an attempt to have divine help in keeping roads open?

season ticket seats are being held until Tuesday night. We will have a better idea Wednesday but this will be well over 15k thats a terrible guess

To get a feel for the crowd, I looked at the basketball map for Northern Iowa, and the lower bowl of that one is getting close to sold-out.

All signs look promising for a big crowd on Saturday.

There are hardly any seats available on the East side of the War. I think we'll end up seeing a crazy student section. Even the students/fans that only come out for the huge name games (knew quite a few people and still have friends that will only show for the Boise State/Nebraska/Texas type games) are going to come out. My girlfriend has a lot of family in Laramie that maybe makes it to one game a year (don't get me started on the locals that don't show up), and they're all planning on being there.

Yeah, roll call your social media(if you have social media) and see what happens. People I didn't even know were Wyoming fans are buying tickets.

As long as top corner on the northwest side is still available on Thursday, I'll be a happy camper. That's my favorite spot anyway.

A guy from Michigan that I work with wants to come with us. He loves college football and is a Michigan st fan. He doesn't want to miss this since cowboys have been his #2. This crowd will be big

Who wants to buy me a plane ticket from Portland to Denver?
If you ever need to laugh, just remember there was some idiot who wanted Bohl fired after 2 seasons.

As a season ticket holder, we were told we have until Tuesday night to buy our seats. After that the general public can buy any season ticket left unsold.

We may... don't want to jinx it.. but may get a sell out. I would not be a bit surprised.

No, you have to buy your tickets BEFORE Tuesday night. At that point your tickets will be available to the general public. I got mine today.

Edit, just re-read what you wrote. I thought you said you had to wait until tuesday night. You are correct.
