Best Rows for leg room at the big house

I am 6 7' and everytime Im at the big house I hit the guy in front of me with my knee ( I always apologize).  What rows have the most leg room?  Also what row is it when you enter into the stadium?

They're all pretty much the same.  Your best bet -may- be the lowest rows, A and B, which I think might be a touch wider than the rest, but it's all pretty standard from there.

If it's one thing about the Big House I don't like, it's the lack of keg room.  (Though, one time in college, the guy in the row in front of me had a case of Busch between his feet.  How he got that in the stadium is a mystery that haunts me to this day.)

Pretty much anything in sections 26-31 will provide ample leg room.  And by ample I mean you won't even be able to stand on your seat without facing sideways.

More serious though, the only seats that will help you out are going to cost many $$$.  If you can afford it, I would look into getting club seats.

My sophomore year (2002) our student tickets were actually in that last row (97).  There are no seats, only numbers painted on the wall.  I'm not sure if they sell these all the way around the stadium, or just in the student section though.

They were awesome seats to watch the Brabbs kick against Washington from, but terrible seats to have during the windy, rainy loss to Iowa.

But then you sacrifice being able to 'see' the game. I really like sitting/ standing higher up and watch the plays develop. Coaches have always impressed me by being able to tell what is going on from the sidelines.

But there are shiny new club level seats that should have plenty of leg room...anyone comment on these?

everyone stands up all game so you don't have to worry about leg room.

Or seats in the luxury boxes probably have some great leg room. You'll have to wait till after I win the lotto to try them out though.
