I went online to try and get a seat but couldn't. Would I be safe to assume that this flight may be oversold?? The flight is 3719 from DTW-BUF.

THanks for any help.
Delta is no longer selling seats on that flight so I would agree its probably either at capacity or oversold. There are a fair amount of blocked seats on every flight so just because there are no seat assignments doesn't necessarily mean it is oversold. Those blocked seats will be used by the gate agent to accommodate anyone lacking a seat assignment.
