I can see INDY ending up as the FAVORITE though and my guess would be no more than 1 point, but I predict the game goes off at a PICK IT in most shops...
The fact that almost all books have Colts as a bigger favorite to win the Super Bowl indicates to me that the Colts will be a slight favorite by kick-off. We shall see !
Very good reasoning but I believe it is due to the matchups, as the whole world got to witness what happened when Pittsburgh played New England at Home earlier this year....
Colts are a 3 point favorite over Pitt at Oly and Patriots are 1 1/2 point underdog. I agree with Shrink that Pitts pounding of Patriots earlier in season is still fresh on everyone's mind. Today's game is the real Super Bowl game IMHO
