US earnings for upgraded UA flight

I have an odd question that I never ran into before. Trying to credit US miles for UA metal flights. My partner I'm flying with on same reservation is UA elite so will have a high chance that we will both get upgraded with his status. My question is will I get 100% BIS miles credited to my US Airways, since an upgrade from economy to business/domestic first would be to I or O class...which technically on US Airways partner earning chart accrues 0%.
I'm thinking it should since it states that it should be based on booking class, which is regular economy ticket. Just wanted to see if any FTer has run into this situation I'm having. Thanks so much!
