UNIVERSITY PARK — Penn State football fans who want to guarantee their seats for Penn State’s clashes with Alabama, new Big Ten Conference member Nebraska and all seven home opponents have a limited time left to do so.
Starting last winter, Penn State fans have secured season football tickets for the first time, or existing season ticket holders have bought additional seats, in anticipation of the Nittany Lions’ blockbuster home schedule. In addition to Alabama’s first visit to Beaver Stadium since 1989, new Big Ten rival Nebraska will travel Penn State for Senior Day on Nov. 12 in the first of what will be highly-anticipated annual conference clashes between the Nittany Lions and Corn-huskers.
Big Ten foes Iowa (Oct. 8), Purdue (Oct. 15- Homecoming) and Illinois (Oct. 29) also will travel to University Park, as Penn State celebrates its 125th season.
Penn State is in the final stages of implementing seating changes for the upcoming season and a limited number of season tickets are available in all seating zones of Beaver Stadium. New applications are currently being processed.
Penn State fans that have not already applied for 2011 season tickets can get information or apply online at www.GoPSUsports.com/tickets , or by calling Penn State Athletics customer relations at 1-800-NITTANY, Monday through Friday between 8 a.m. and 5 p.m.
The 2011 campaign begins Labor Day weekend when the Nittany Lions host Indiana State on Sept. 3, followed by a date with the Crimson Tide at 3:30 p.m. on Sept. 10. After a trip to Temple, Penn State returns home on Sept. 24 against Eastern Michigan.
