And, depending on who you listen to, 5,000 to 10,000 will be us! . . . (in fact, it's the first time
they've sold out season tickets in a long time).

********************
Not just "sold out season tickets" but I read a WF article talking about how this game is the first sold out game in a long time.  I read one of the players who said "it is because of us" that the game was sold out (implying because of the current WF team) without giving credit to the Nebraska influx.

I agree with your numbers as 3,000 tickets sold directly by NU, plus 1,000 NU purchased season tickets (before WF stopped selling them to people with Nebraska addresses), plus the normal number of NU fans buying locally, plus the scalped tickets by NU fans.  10,000 would be 1/3 rd of the crowd -- about what we got vs ND a few years ago.
