What you need to know about Super Bowl XLIV before running into John from accounting while making a cup of coffee at the office kitchenette Monday morning.
WHO: Indianapolis Colts against the New Orleans Saints. (Coincidentally, also the name of the band performing at halftime.) It marks the first meeting between two number one seeds since 1993.
WHAT: The Super Bowl. Hopefully you already knew this ...
WHY: Pete Rozelle said so.
WHEN: Feb. 7, 2010, kickoff at 6:28 p.m. ET (on CBS)
WHERE: "South Florida"; more specifically: Miami Gardens, Florida (16 miles northwest of downtown Miami).
HOW: Most likely with lots of scoring. The Saints were the top-scoring team in the NFL (averaged 32 points per game), while the Colts were the seventh-best, with 26 ppg.
LINE: Colts -4.5 -115, O/U 55.5 (for recreational purposes, of course).
