Super Bowl LX - Seattle Seahawks vs New England Patriots NFL

[Tom]

Super Bowl LX. Seattle Seahawks v New England Patriots from Santa Clara/San Francisco.

After a week of frenzied build-up in the San Francisco Bay Area, America's biggest game takes place on Sunday night.

Super Bowl 60 is being held in Santa Clara, California, with the New England Patriots aiming for a record seventh victory.

The Seattle Seahawks are narrow favourites to lift the Lombardi Trophy, but Sunday's game is about much more than the NFL champions being decided.

Lots of viewing options.

Sky Sports Main Event, Sky Sports NFL, Sky Sports Mix/HD (the 'free' station) and Sky Showcase (soon to be reverted back to its old name of Sky One). Coverage generally from 10pm.

C5 UK. Coverage from 10.30pm.

Virgin Media 1. Coverage starts at 11pm. Featuring Charlie Smyth, Michael McQuaid and Jeff Reinebold

Sky NFL will also show four hours of the NBC pre-game show from 6pm to 10pm. It's an NBC year, so Mike Tirico and Cris Collinsworth will be the comms team. Half-time show is Bad Bunny.

The game kicks off after 23.30 our time (15.30 local). The forecast is dry but cloudy, with temperatures in the 12-16 range

Seahawks to win, but I just hope it isn't like last year's blowout when it was over as a contest before HT.

 

[Tom]

The thing about last year, though, was that because of the Mahomes factor, you always had the "what if?" in the back of your head, even if it seemed unlikely.

My fear is that if the Patriots fall behind tonight, the Seahawks' defence will simply lock in. I don't think the Patriots can play from more than a score behind.

 

[Steve]

Are you watching tonight, Tom?

Are you watching tonight, Tom?

Yeah, the first half at least and the halftime show (I've never heard any Bad Bunny before). If it is still close at halftime, I'll watch it all.

 

[Birdman]

Hoping for a good game. I think if the Seahawks win, we could see a new dynasty in the making.

 

[Steve]

Green Day still got it!

 

[Steve]

Turnovers could be key. Drake Maye and Sam Darnold both need to protect the ball.

 

[Birdman]

Here we go!

How close was that to being picked off??
