-- Seattle plays its games on artificial turf, Steelers grass. This is the first-ever Super Bowl on FieldTurf.
-- Holmgren has won Super Bowl, Cowher hasn't.
-- Seattle has only two players in this game who played on Super Bowl champ (Wistrom, Jurevicius).
-- Seattle doesn't use the shotgun, while most teams the Steelers play did; shotgun formation gives defensive ends a target to rush, while a dropback passer makes it little more vague for the rushing DE.
-- Seattle is #1 seed, Steelers #6. I know the AFC is a better conference, but a #6 is favored by 4.5 points over a #1 seed? I don't think so.
-- Hasselbeck is the more experienced QB. Maaybe not the better QB, but he has been through more.
-- Seattle hasn't lost a game that counted since Week 4. Steelers were 7-5, at one point.
-- The line is inflated because Steelers are public team, a team with national following. Seahawks, along with Jags, are most obscure teams in whole NFL.
-- Jim Fassel, offensive coordinator of Baltimore, was a backup QB at USC with Holmgren; his Ravens play the Steelers twice a year, and they've done alright- they were 16-38 on 3rd down vs Steelers this yr, with awful QB's. These guys share ideas, and you can bet Fassel has been in contact with Holmgren, sharing information.
-- Mike Holmgren didn't get doused with Gatorade after the NFC title game; this shows a maturity that Seahawks still had one more game to win, and this is the game.

Seattle vs. Pittsburgh, 6:20 EST
Game Preview by Big Al McMordie

7-1 ATS away off a straight up win
13-5 ATS off a win by 10+ points

AFC vs. NFC: The NFC holds a 21-18 SU edge over the AFC in the first 39 meetings. Also, the NFC is 21-15 ATS with three pushes against its foe. However, the AFC has gone 6-3 SU and 4-3-2 ATS in the last nine Super Bowls.



The biggest margin of victory for the AFC was 27 points in Super Bowl XXXV, when Baltimore crushed the N.Y. Giants 34-7 as a threepoint favorite. The NFC has won an eye opening 17 of its 21 Super Bowl's by double-digits. Its largest chest pounding came in 1990 after San Francisco crushed Denver 55-10 for an easy 45-point victory.



Favorite vs. Underdog: If you're looking to make a money-line play on the game, perhaps you should look for value. The favorite has gone 25-14 SU and 18- 18-3 ATS. An upset is very possible, but the chalk has still been winning outright at a 64 percent clip. Check out this stat! Only eight times has the favorite won the game, but failed to cover the number. This number includes three pushes and last year's Super Bowl XXXIX when New England defeated Philadelphia 24- 21, with the Eagles covering as seven-point underdogs.



'Dog players should definitely give the money line a shot. The N.Y. Jets still remain the biggest underdog to win outright after upsetting Indianapolis 16-7 as a 17-point 'dog in Super Bowl III.



Over vs. Under: Oddsmakers didn't start creating totals until 1982 when San Francisco and Cincinnati clashed in Super Bowl XVI. Sure enough, this game was the only total landed on the closing number of 47, as the Niners beat the Bengals, 26-21. In the other 23 contests with a total, the fans have gotten to see some fireworks. The 'over' is a solid 15-8 (65%), including six out of the last nine big games.



Indoor Track: As mentioned above, Super Bowl XL will be played indoors. This will be the 12th time that the finale is played in a dometype atmosphere and we're including Houston's Reliant Stadium as well, host of SBXXXVIII. Only seven out of the 32 teams in the NFL play in an indoor stadium, with the NFC having five clubs. Perhaps it's a coincidence that the NFC has won eight of the 11 Super Bowls played indoors.



A lot of these games haven't been close either, with the victor winning by an average of 14.9 point per game. The favorite is 6-3-2 ATS in the 11 games, while points have been posted in bunches too when played on the fast track. An average of 43.4 PPG have been scored in the 11 indoor Super Bowls, helping the 'over' go 5-3-1 with listed totals. In case you're wondering the highest combined points in the big game came in SB XXIX, when San Francisco (49) and San Diego (26) combined for 75 points.



Parlay Combinations: If you’ve read any of my recent scribes on VI, then you’ll know that I enjoy playing parlays and love to dissect the probabilities of what’s due and not due! What we do know about the Super Bowl is that a champion will be crowned and it will also close the book on your pro football wagering for the year, unless you’re looking to get a fix on the Pro Bowl (Over looks good!).



Anyway, some might think it’s hard enough to pick the winner in any sport, but try nailing both the side and the total could be looked at as a shot in the dark. As stated earlier, totals were only posted in 1982, but we still have a sample of 24 games to see which combination happened more often than others.



Normally, you would expect the books to clean up on the public’s guessing game. However, the combination of ‘favorite/over’ has cashed in nine of the last 24 Super Bowl games.



That’s an incredible 38 percent for laying the wood in a shootout. The ‘underdog/under’ parlay hit last year with Philly getting the backdoor against New England, improving this combo to six hits. Next up is the ‘underdog/over’ has cashed five times. The least likely combination to happen since 1982 has been the ‘favorite/under’, which happened once. The only instance happened in Super Bowl XVIII, when Dallas stifled Buffalo 30-13 as a 10 1/2-point favorite. The combined 43 points dipped ‘under’ the closing total of 50.



Line: Oddsmakers tabbed the Steelers as four-point favorites and I would guess that number to stay steady, perhaps even go down to 3 ½ at some point before kickoff. There have been 12 Super Bowls that have seen the point-spread listed at four points or less. Out of the dozen finales, only three have been decided by single digits. Don’t want to take a shot at the experts, but these games haven’t been close! To their credit, neither have a lot other Super Bowls. Before you hop on the Steelers, keep in mind that underdogs own a 7-4-1 ATS mark when listed as a dog on four or less.

Xavier lost three of four games since OT win over Cincinnati in their crosstown series; they had GW by 10 at half Thursday, but GW stormed past them in second half. Game that started Xavier skid was 59-54 home loss to Saint Louis Jan 22, when Billikens held Xavier to 32% from floor, survived 20 turnovers. St Louis is finally off WLWL streak; winning last two, vs Fordham, and at Rhode Island.

Trap game here for George Washington, after big win at Xavier that validated their Top 10 status. Colonials are 7-0 in A-14, 2-1 as home favorite, winning by 5 (ot- St Louis), 12 (St Joseph's), 19 (URI) pts.

Streaky Niagara won at Manhattan Friday, their MAAC season has been like this: 4L-3W-3L-2W. Mihalich is good coach, and young team is getting better. Fairfield lost 78-73 at Niagara back on Jan 12, as Niagara hit 12-24 treys, shot 51% for game. Eagles are 2-3 as road dog. Fairfield won in OT Friday; their first cover in five MAAC home games this season.
