Few tickets remain through bowl office as game nears sellout.
The University of Oregon has exhausted its supply of tickets for its game vs. the University of Texas in the 23rd annual Holiday Bowl, but those who have yet to purchase tickets for the Ducks' sixth post-season appearance in seven years may not be out of luck, according to the school's Director of Ticket Sales Colleen Standiford. Oregon was committed to sell 11,500 tickets for the Dec. 29 bowl game in San Diego as part of its agreement with the Holiday Bowl. But most of those were spoken for early into the third day of sales to the school's priority constituents consisting of football season ticket holders, athletics department donors as well as university students, staff and faculty. The athletics department requested an additional 1,000 tickets from the Holiday Bowl early Wednesday before putting in a second request for another 700 tickets later that same day. The Longhorns also were reported to still have tickets remaining from their allotment, but it was unclear whether the Holiday Bowl would be able to secure any of those remaining tickets to sell from the San Diego bowl headquarters.
