Are there any ways around this? Since I'm paying the full amount of 25,000 miles, I would prefer to be in first class on the ORD-SFO segment.

Thanks!
I'm pretty sure there has to be saver award space on all legs to get it (OW). Now, you can have saver economy on one leg and saver First/business on another (will charge you saver First/business rate) but both need to be saver.
