EUGENE -- Between the preceding Thanksgiving holiday and dispiriting losses by both No. 12 Oregon and Oregon State last weekend, Friday's 117th Civil War at Autzen Stadium is not an immediate hit with Oregon's students, who have more than 1,000 tickets unclaimed as of Monday afternoon.

On Sunday evening, the university's student ticket Twitter account reported that tickets were still available for each class.

The students will have until 8 a.m. Tuesday to claim those before the difference is released for sale to the general public. If tickets remain from that sale, students have another chance to reclaim tickets during a redistribution on Wednesday.

"I never really focus on what the student section does, I just focus on my game that we have, we're playing Oregon State and it's all that matters for us," Oregon junior center Hroniss Grasu said. "If we lose this one I think the whole stadium's not going to show up to our next game."

It is the only section of the stadium that hasn't been a hot seller, according to Oregon senior associate athletic director Craig Pintens, who reported the game is officially over capacity as a sellout. The last time Oregon students did not claim their allotment was in 2010 against Arizona, a game that also fell on Thanksgiving weekend, Pintens said.

Students are allotted 5,448 tickets to Autzen Stadium games that fall during the academic year.

"The lack of interest is more to do with the holiday than from interest in a two-loss team," Oregon student body president Sam Dotters-Katz said. "There is still a lot of interest in our Ducks."

On Oregon's own ticket marketplace Monday, where anyone can buy or sell, 286 tickets were for sale that ranged from $99 to $3,600.

On the secondary market, Stubhub reported 1,416 tickets for sale.

No. 12 Oregon is coming off a 42-16 loss to Arizona that derailed its path to a possible Rose Bowl berth. Oregon State lost its fourth straight game by allowing 69 points to Washington -- the most in school history.
