Who Dat Gonna Win the Super Bowl?
If you take stock in EA’s annual predicitions then the New Orleans Saints will defeat the Indianapolis Colts on Sunday in Super Bowl XLIV. This simulation takes place every year during Super Bowl week. This year EA held the simulation on the Xbox 360 and the Saints won the game 35-31, thought it wasn’t an easy victory.
Both teams displayed tremendous offensive efforts through the first three quarters where the Colts were winning 24-21. Early in the fourth quarter Saints return specialist Reggie Bush returned a punt 42 yards for a touchdown giving the Saints the lead for good.
Since these Super Bowl simulations began in 2004 the EA Sports franchise has correctly predicted five out of the last six Super Bowls giving this years prediction a good chance to come true.
The Great Friend Code Exchange
This really should end up being a fantastic game. Both of these squads are extremely well matched. I think Indy will have the edge simply because Manning is almost unstoppable. If he can play, Freeney and Mathis should be capable of getting enough pressure on Drew to make him to unload the ball sooner than he wants to. If the saints defense doesn’t make a few turn overs the colts probably will win.
