Tickets will go on sale to the general public on Jan. 1, with seat assignments finalized in May.

PETERSON ON THE RISE

On the Cowboys' latest depth chart, Brodrick Brown and Justin Gilbert remain listed as the starters at cornerback, with true freshman Kevin Peterson backing up Brown.

That's the way it was last week, too, when Peterson replaced Gilbert, who started instead as a fifth defensive back against West Virginia.

Whether or not Peterson has supplanted the struggling Gilbert, he's at least earned a bigger role on the defense.

“He's just getting better and better,” said Cowboys defensive coordinator Bill Young. “He's so much better than what we thought he would be at this point.

“So many people play with four and five wide receivers and they run our corners to death. You have to have a spell. To be able to put him in and not have a big drop-off has been huge for us.”
