Any Chance of Upgrade for FO Here?

We are traveling to PVR on Saturday...I'm on a paid ticket and have been upgraded. Wife is FO on an award ticket, not eligible for upgrade. F is still pretty much wide open. If there are more seats than upgrade requests at the gate on Saturday, I was considering asking the GA if there was any chance of getting her upgraded...

I know op-ups are are possibility if Y is overbooked, but it doesn't look like it today. I was hoping that the GA might sympathize with FOs who have been excluded from several benefits like upgrades on award tickets and pay-with-miles tickets, assuming that there is a seat which would otherwise go empty.

Probably a real long shot. Is it worth asking, or is there just no chance?

Of course if she can't be upgraded, I'll be the one riding in the back
