Throughout this offseason, I'll be putting up polls to let TGP determine the greatest Super Bowl of all time. With 48 of them in the books, I've set up a bracket so that 16 get a "bye week," and the rest compete in single-elimination votes. There will be no seeding round or preliminary round of any kind. This is the offseason and we want to chew as much time as possible. Also, we get to reflect on every Super Bowl from 1967 to 2014. ------------------------------------------------Matchup #1------------------------------------------------ Super Bowl XI January 9, 1977 - Rose Bowl, Pasadena, CA Oakland Raiders 32, Minnesota Vikings 14 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S4A_hLximDo Highlights Raiders reached 19-0 lead before Vikings scored.
