What's your vote and how will it go down? What's the final score going to be?

The Avian who picks the correct winner, AND is closest to guessing the score will get an honorable mention on Avian's home page.

I preface this by saying I know literally nothing about football, zero. I overheard a few people talking at lunch today and that is when I found out who was even playing.

That said, I like history and I guess and undefeated team would make history so I'm going with the Pats. Again, I know nothing of the team and could not name a single player on either of the teams but undefeated is pretty impressive.

As for score. ummmmm how about

15 - 10

I got my swammy hat on so I will also predict that the first half of the game only 6 total points will be scored in the game. Oh AND the gaints will score a touchdown in the final quarter but the onside kick will not be recovered and the pats will hold the ball for the remaining 4 minutes.

ok wow Madden NFL has taught me more about football that I realized :)

I hope the giants win however as a die hard bears fan and anti-patriots fan

Neither? I can't remember when having two more dislikable teams in the super bowl.

6-2 Pats, I guess.

I'll make my prediction of an upset. Giants 31, Patriots 27.

Patriots won't be going vanilla on defense for the first half and take an early lead and keep their foot on the gas pedal.

Patriots 41, Giants 21.

I agree. Best NFL game I've ever seen. WHAT A DRIVE in the 4th quarter!

And how about that halftime show! That was seriously the best halftime show ever. Tom Petty's still got a great stage presence after all these years. Maybe I'm just old.

Congrats to Aranath for the winning prediction!

After 3 quarters, 6-2 looked like a pretty good pick!

Good game.

Thanks and ditto

That has to be one of the best Super Bowls ever. Other than the commercials, they were OK, but I didn't see any that really had me laughing, except the etrade ones with the infant. Those were pretty darn funny :)

Nice prediction. I liked the Bud horse-dalmation commercial.

I was at a fairly rowdy superbowl party, so I missed all but a couple commercials and could only barely hear a couple of them. Anybody know of a site that has them all online?
