Super Bowl XL

I can't believe that football season is almost over. I am already depressed about waking up on a Saturday or Sunday and not having 15 hours of non stop football to look forward to. This football season went by too fast! At least the Kentucky Derby trail has begun and Husker baseball starts in 14 days (woohoo!!).
So now it's the time for the main event. Super Bowl X-tra L-arge. I really think it's an interesting matchup. Both team look very strong and have a lot going into the game. I think the big difference maker of the game will be if the Steelers shut down Shaun Alexander, will Matt Hasslebeck be able to step up and make plays? The biggest weakness I see for Seattle is that they only played against 5 winning teams (mostly because the NFC sucked this year), they may not be ready to deal with the Steelers. The Steelers may give into the hype surrounding them and they themselves might take the Seahawks for granted.
That being said I will pick the Steelers to win. The Seahawks are 17th overall in defense(even though Grant Wistrom is still #1 in my heart :) ) and I think that hurts them in the end. But it is nice that they made it to the big game for the first time. I think they will be a contender next year as well. So go "Bus" and "Big Ben," Steelers-33 Seahawks 24.
