Wisconsin officials tout Saturday night's game against Nebraska as the toughest ticket ever at 94-year-old Camp Randall Stadium.

As many as 30,000 Cornhuskers fans are expected to migrate to Madison, Wis., Badgers athletic director Barry Alvarez said. Most probably won't get into the stadium to watch Nebraska's inaugural Big Ten game.

Wisconsin spokesman Brian Lucas said the school had 404 season tickets available for sale and that 67 of them were bought by people with Nebraska addresses. Each buyer was limited to four tickets.

Under Big Ten rules, a school is allotted 3,000 tickets for road games. Nebraska received requests for 20,000.

Adding luster to the game is that it's the first in Madison since 1962 that two teams ranked in the top 10 will square off. Wisconsin is No. 7 and Nebraska is No. 8.

Wisconsin officials are hopeful the locals won't give into temptation and sell tickets to Nebraska fans, many of whom will be wearing black instead of their traditional red so they stand out among the red-clad Badgers fans.

"I know Nebraska has their little black-shirt mojo going," Badgers coach Bret Bielema said. "But hopefully the Wisconsin fans stand strong and wear the red and make that environment second to none."
