EIGHTH ANNUAL SEASON-ENDING BIG GAME POOL: Five questions, one blog:
1. Winner/final score.
2. Official Game MVP.
3. Which advertiser tops the USA Today Super Bowl Ad Meter?
4. Predict something interesting about Beyonce's performance. [Portions of the setlist have been leaked.]
5. Will Alicia Keys' rendition of the National Anthem run over/under 2:15?
Tiebreaker: Pick a prop bet as listed on Football Outsiders. Get it right. The tougher the odds of winning your bet, the more credit you get.

Previous winners: 2006: Benner; 2007: me; 2008: Joseph J. Finn ; 2009: Scott; 2010: Scott again; 2011: GoldnI; 2012: Phil. As they will tell you, the prizes are Fame and Glory within this community, but nothing financial.

[My picks: San Francisco 24-20, Colin Kaepernick, Dorito's, Jay-Z will not appear, and under. Tiebreaker Prop: Dennis Pitta scores first TD of game.]
