PASADENA, Calif. (AP) — Renovations to the Rose Bowl aren’t expected to affect “The Granddaddy of Them All” between the Oregon Ducks and the Wisconsin Badgers on Monday.

The 89-year-old stadium is undergoing a $160 million renovation that includes the additions of a new press box and luxury seats.

Rose Bowl officials told the Los Angeles Times (http://lat.ms/rSiPBQ) this week that construction on a new video board has been finished as well as widening four tunnels. Seating hasn’t been affected.

The renovations will resume Jan. 3.
