Steelers To Win Superbowl According To Madden ’11

People have used some weird stuff to pick the out comes of sporting events. Remember Paul the octopus that picked the winners of the World Cup? Well, for the past seven Superbowls, The popular Madden video game, made by EA games, have been used to determine the out come. Out of those seven, six have correctly been chosen by the video game and with very close scores. How it works is they put the teams in a Superbowl simulated game and just let it play out, no human interaction. This year it picked the Steelers to win over the Packers, 24-20. Will it play out like this? Only time will tell if Madden will get it right again. I, on the other hand, would like to see the Packers win this one.
