BG seating section at Camp Randall Stadium?

Does anyone have any idea what section the BG section of seats (visitor section) will be at Camp Randall Stadium? I have a stadium seating chart, but it doesn't specify which section the seats will be in. I thought I remembered someone saying the upper deck sections AA and LL. Any ideas?

yeah, I've heard the visitor seating is pretty crappy, at least for "regular fans" I'm sure its like OSU... parents and deep pocketed alums will have 8 or 9 rows in a decent spot, the rest will be shoved in a corner. We're considering scalping for tickets for just that reason.
As long as they don't sit me next to Booker Stanley, I'll be fine.

I'd actually rather sit up in those sections (AA & LL) than in the first couple rows in say the bowl of the end zone. Virginia played at Wisconsin a few years ago and the people I talked to said the seats in the upper deck weren't that bad at all.

upper deck is the best seats i think...when i was there for OSU game..most of the osu fans were put under the scoreboard behind the endzone and wrapped all the way to about the goal line. osu travels more fans obviously so they filled that section solid. BG will get under the scoreboard. thats my guess

I dug up what appears to be an updated seating chart. It still doesn't list a visitors section, but it shows sections J-P as the UW student section.

Only half of J. I'm sure we have to sit in the other half...

It would suck to sit among the student section. Aside from those seats being a poor view, have you ever seen the UW students "Jump Around?" Looks fun on TV, but I wouldn't want to be a visiting fan down there......unless I was ahead by say 35-points or so.

from my experience, there is no visitors even close to the student section

Now, this may have changed as I couldn't afford student tix last year and didn't attend a game (and we've had recent renovations, creating new sections). In the past, the visiting sections have been in the lower-mid part of sections x-v, and also sections AA and LL...The visiting section isn't near the student section, that would be cruel and unusual punishment which is prohibited by the 8th Amendment.

I'm sure X-V is the comp tickets for the parents and friends then and we all get to sit up high...

The last time we played there our seats were in Sections X and W, or at least in that general vicinity.

33- are you going to the game? We'll have to meet up for a drink if you are!
I ordered my 8 tickets with the brochure two weeks ago, I hope they got my order!!

When do tickets go on sale to the general public? I did a search and didn't see any threads on that and am not special enough to have a brochure like Dayons...

Metz- I have an extra brochure if you would like one? They are nicely done.
Also, the more direct route would be to go the ticket office at Memorial Hall and order them directly there. The less than helpful staff does have the ability to take orders for that game and I was told season ticket holders received priority when the Wisco tickets arrive. . . .

Yes, I am planning on going to the BG/Wisconsin game. I am trying to work out all of this now out with my fiancee (tickets, flight, hotel, rental car, etc.), but it would be awesome to meet up with all of you that are going too. Also, there's a very strong chance I will be moving back to Ohio this summer with my fiancee, and if that happens (which is very likely), you can add two more names to the BG season ticket list! So if I can't meet up with some of you in Wisconsin, I'll have to stroll over to the AZZ tailgate and introduce myself and meet everyone then.
