They said its be 76 years since whatever it is last happened which was the year the glass bowl opened

The glass bowl is getting a retractable roof for all the November night games!

THE GLASS BUBBLE

It has to be a major renovation to the Glass Bowl. If it was leaving the MAC it would have been leaked by now

Says "Hasnt been done in 76 years" and that was when the Glass Bowl was made. If its a major renovation, they've done that in the last 76 years.

Next season we open with U Havana.

Could Mancz be getting all-american honors from one of the lists. In '38 Bukovich was AP 1st team all-american at guard.

Sounds like a conversational topic at Savage Arena tonight.......

Induct Chuck

I mean, Greg was player of the year so it is very possible. Strange that he would be the center ALL AMERICAN because he played guard for 3 seasons. Or is it just 5 linemen that get it??

I was hoping for the AAC move, or GB renovation but this is almost as good if it is true! 6:30 news...

I thought about both the possibilities ( U of Havana, last played in 1938 ) and a first team AllAmerican but Mel Long was a consensus AA in 1970 was he not? Sooooo...we're playing Havana!

Don't know about this Havana that you speak of, but Long was AA on defense. Have we had another AA on the OL since Bukovich?

On the other hand, maybe they are going to announce we are gonna return to playing at Libby High School again?

Could be that it's a position thing. I hope not. I'm booking a flight to Havana on Kayak. Unless Obama changes his mind in which case I'm actually going to kayak to Havana.
