    who do you think will win the superbowl?



    NOTE: Poll closes 4 hours and 8 minutes before kickoff...although, if a mod can edit that, it would be best if it closed an hour before...but whatever, i just don't want in-game votes.

    Steelers. The party I'm helping with we are going all out. I ordered a bunch of stuff from this company in Pittsburgh last week and today in the Chronicle it said the store had to have police to keep the crowds in order.

    Don't care too much who wins but I think it's gonna be the Steelers. Either way I'm more excited that it's an excuse to eat greasy food and get wasted ! :D

    i'm surprised everyone seems so sure the steelers will win. i don't care at all and have no idea who will win, so i'll pick the seahawks. i mean, i'm watching the game but man, it's a bit of a ho-hum matchup.

    I actually think it's a great and interesting matchup. Both these teams have faced adversity this season, finally gotten healthy, and have come out on top.

    I think this will be a close and entertaining game to boot. I'm glad the better teams won.

    Picking Pittsburgh and rooting for Seattle.

    I am an old time Houstonian and Oiler Fan. There is no possible way I could root for the Steelers in the Super Bowl.

    That being said....Super Bowl XXX in 1996 (Dallas vs. Pittsburgh) was the worst matchup in history. I think I went to the beach that day and totally blew off the Super Bowl.

    was that the same super bowl that neither team scored and the winner was decided by a coin toss?

    i put a small bet on that game to make it interesting. i was at baylor with a bunch of annoying cowboys fans, so it was easier to root for the steelers that way. i think the line was cowboys by 12...i bet they wouldn't cover. they didn't. :)

    Seattle. The Steelers haven't faced a defense like Seattle's in the playoffs yet (sorry Bronco fans), which is why they're in the Superbowl in the first place.

    Should be a good game though.

    Seattle.

    The Steelers haven't been to the Super Bowl ever under Cowher and Holmgren has been there a few times. Edge goes to Holmgren.

    The underdog has done fairly well the past 4 Super Bowls, covering the number and it's time for another underdog to win outright.
