Super Bowl Posts--Part III--The Outcome
Well, here it is--the result of tonight's game!!!!
In advance, nonetheless!!!
Two predictions--one was a dream, where a 31-17 Steeler lead VERY late in the game ended up after a few TERRIBLE replay calls as a 31-31 tie going into overtime. Another TERRIBLE replay review cancelled out a game-winning Steeler touchdown, and a lame and anti-climactic score from the other team led to a Steeler loss, BUT, with all the announcers saying publicly how badly the Steelers had been treated by the refs and how they really won the game, 15 years from now everyone will say "Wow, remember the year that the Steelers got ripped off? Who'd they play that year??!?!"
For those of you who're panicked at that dream, don't worry--in my dream the "other team" was the Dallas Cowboys, not Seattle. Also, the overtime rules in my dream were the "alternating possessions from the ten-yard-line" rules of high-school playoffs, not the NFL, sooo...don't take this too seriously :)
My *conscious* prediction, such as it is, was posted earlier on Chris Lilik's excellent GrassrootsPa site (www.grassrootspa.com) in the Comments section. It goes like this:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Steelers win, 24-19 or 24-21 depending on whether the Seahawks make the 2-point conversion after their very-very-late touchdown.
Slow start for the Steelers, who're up 10-7 or 10-3 at halftime BUT who should be blowing the 'Hawks off the field. Roethlesberger's a little tight in the first half, but finds his groove in the second; Seahawks can never figure out Steelers defense and rarely make any progress.
Shawn Alexander's the leading rusher (110+ yards), BUT, the (REAL) MVP, Willie Parker, keeps the Steelers O moving (89 total rushing yards) until the 2nd half, when MVP Jerome Bettis' 2 touchdowns (one of them maybe a catch or a throw) take charge of the game. Steelers try to run out the clock, but, like I said, Seahawks come back and make it closer than it should've been.
Scariest moment is a failed Steelers gadget play that maybe turns into an interception and Seahawks score--should've bene a TD but D holds 'Hawks to a FG.
Either all of that will happen or maybe something else
Guess we should all watch the game and find out!!!!!!!!
