Super Bowl Predictions

bump.

I refuse to enter because I do not want to be a negative nancy.

Pats win on a divine luck/officiating play and a last second field goal, 27-24.

[sportsfan882]

Patriots 31 Giants 27

That's very close to ESPN's average prediction on its 10,000 simulations, assuming Gronk plays.  I don't buy it because I don't see either team as being a steady-state performer that would allow for meaningful simulation.  A lot of the key playoff playersl have far less than a full season (Giants RBs, Pats Patrick Chung and Brandon Spikes).

Maybe Ed Hochuli has to explain something

haaaaaaaa!

I would agree. I think I projected 24-17 Pats earlier in this thread, I think 24-20 is more likely now that I think about it. Regardless, this game isn't getting close to 60 points.

I'm calling it now:

G-G-G-G-G-Unit: 31
Patsies: 17
Coin Flip: NFC

I highly doubt that either side wins by double digits.

[BerkeleyNat]

I highly doubt that either side wins by double digits.

I was just looking earlier on here and noticed that there are four of us that have one team or the other winning by double digits. MDS has the biggest spread at 14. I have the Giants winning by 11, while the others are 10 point differences.

[skippy1999]

Screw it, Pats by three

[Obed_Marsh]

I predict a team I don't give a rats ass about will win the super bowl with 100% confidence.

And with Brady's brain fart on the first play, a safety gives hope across America to people who bought a square with a "2" for the Giants.   

[Lintyfresh85]

Giants 21
Patriots 17

[imref]

Giants 21
Patriots 17

winner!

[JCA-CrystalCity]

Thank goodness the NFL kept score instead of the people who have been running caucuses in Iowa and Nevada. We would not know the final score for 3 weeks.

Nice Gesture by both teams thanking the troops!
