You may want to call the Reservations, and try to have them honor the upgrade. Most likely, they'll say the same thing, but good luck and safe travels!
I'm guessing the OP has CO SWUs, as his profile only mentions CO PLAT and not 1K.

I hope this isn't what lies ahead of us from the CO side to the new UA.
