Super Bowl LIII is set to be a rematch of Super Bowl XXXVI with the Los Angeles Rams playing the New England Patriots. Most people did not see their team make the Superbowl so they will be stuck picking one of the two teams to root for on Superbowl Sunday.

Urbana football coach Ordell Walker sees a clear winner. “You can’t bet against Belichick,” he says.

Senior Brendin Baker is on the side of the LA Rams. “As a Broncos fan, I like seeing CJ Anderson, Aqib Talib, and Wade Phillips in the Superbowl, and I can’t root for the Patriots.” Senior Kobe Green agrees: “I just hate New England and don’t wanna see them win.”

Urbana junior Jonathan Warhover is a Ravens fan, so the rivalry causes him to go against New England. “I just don’t wanna see the the Pats win another ring,” he says.

Senior Jessie Godwin, a Steelers fan, also lets his rivalry dictate his choice. He said he “will never root for the Pats and nothing can make me root for them.”

The Patriots hate seems to stem from rivalries, leading many to root for the Rams. We will find out at 5:30 on CBS.
