Spoiler alert! The Ravens will win

I’ll admit it.
I’ve been back and forth on this a hundred times. I’ve checked the injury report. I’ve compared stats. I busted out the divining rod and poked some goat entrails with it.
In fact, as I sat down to write this, I very nearly talked myself out of this pick.
But, like Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers, I won’t back down.
Ladies and germs, the Baltimore Ravens will win today’s game.
In case you hadn’t heard, Super Bowl Some Roman Numeral is today. It’s kind of a big deal.
This one has been a tough one to call for me. I literally couldn’t even decide what I wanted to eat for the game, let alone decide who I thought was going to win. Of course, the food associated with the game is just as important as the game itself but that’s another issue.
My dilemma boils down to this: my head says the San Francisco 49ers should win. My gut says the Baltimore Ravens.
And, since my gut is bigger than my head, I have to go with Baltimore. Just kidding. That was just one factor in my decision.
Actually, my thought process was more along these lines: I generally like the team that seems to have its mojo working heading into the playoffs. By that standard, the 49ers should be a shoo-in.
