In a completely anonymous and randomly selected survey, 75 students stated who they thought would win the Super Bowl this year. Carolina Panthers, an unexpected competitor in this year’s season, won with 41 votes. Broncos came in a close second with 34 votes, making this year’s Super Bowl game predicted to be a real nail biter.
This was the Panthers seventh time playing in the playoffs and only their second Super Bowl since being founded in 1995. With their starting QB Cam Newton, the Panthers are entering Super Bowl 50 with an astonishing record of 15-1 in the regular season. Panthers have never won a Super Bowl before, so a victory for them will be one for the books.
On the other side, the Broncos have played in the playoffs numerous times and have competed in 8 Super Bowls. With their starting QB Peyton Manning, the Broncos are going into the Super Bowl with a record of 12-4 in the regular season. Broncos have only won two Super Bowls since their founding.
The two number one picks head to head in Super Bowl 50. The number one offense vs. the number one defense in the country. Who do you think is gonna win?
Denver Broncos 45.3%
