Anyone else experiencing this issue? Was trying to look at available seats and the whole stadium is showing up red...

Unless you want row 6, TT has the best seats left but then you are in the sun and near the standees. It seems like the West side, other than T is not real popular. They should have just made bench back seating around the whole stadium like Stanford did.

People willing to sit in row 6 on the West side rather than going east should tell them something. i.e. Don't move the students because there is not enought demand for those seats. I wonder how the East side would be selling if it like the west with more room and seat backs.Might be something to consider

Don't know about doing the whole stadium in chairbacks, but more of the stadium should be chairbacks. The demand is there because they set reasonable donations levels. At a minimum, Sections II and E should be chairbacks. T & TT also for the sun worshipers.

Don't want the students moved. But, if they were moved and replaced by chairbacks, they would sell. What we don't need is any more ESP seats.

I logged in earlier to check the available seats and the entire stadium was RED'
out. I logged back in later and it was normal. Most likely going to pick something in T or TT, dont want to be too high up. Was thinking somewhere between 40-50?

Benchbacks reduce capacity, and thus reduce the number that can sit in T/TT. A lot of people complain that we are reducing capacity too much already. Plus, I believe the seating enhancements are part of the last phase of development. Hopefully, that will be within my lifetime.

Have had seats there since '78. Picked a couple of seats in F during selection, but also kept seats in TT. Around row 50 is perfect, and get seats on North end (Seat 1 and on) stairs will be on your right, so crowd will not bother you. No problem what so ever about "standees", and the sun is not a problem. When all games were at 12:30, that was a different story. But know, with times all over the place, no problem. You will have some of the most friendly fans around you that you have ever met.

Thanks for the feedback, I appreciate it!

Sat in TT for 26 years, until I decided the sun was simply too much. We had some of the best people we ever sat with at a game. Great, great people. It's why I stayed in TT as long as I did.

We moved to E. We were fortunate in that the people in that section, while not quite as loud, are still good people. No grouches in Section E, either.

Putting in benchbacks would have been great from a comfort perspective. But the capacity reduction of more than 20% would have been simply too much.

Now, if the project had included a second deck in critical spots, then benchbacks throughout the stadium might have been okay. But then, the cost would probably be prohibitive. Just my two cents.
