The demand for Penn State football tickets has resulted in the first sellout of the 2006 season, the October 14 clash with Michigan.

The Wolverines will be playing in Beaver Stadium for the first time since 2001. The contest will kick off at 8 p.m. and air on ABC.

Penn State's only loss during an 11-1 Big Ten Championship campaign in 2005 came at Michigan, 27-25, on a touchdown on the last play of the game.

The anticipation for the 2006 football season has pushed Penn State season ticket sales to the brink of 90,000, the highest total since the 2001 season. Penn State students sold out their 21,000 season tickets in a record 13 days.

Joe Paterno's squad returns 34 letterwinners and 11 starters for the 2006 season, including returning All-Americans and 2006 co-captains Paul Posluszny and Levi Brown and 2005 All-Big Ten selections Jay Alford and Tony Hunt.
