Super Bowl LV (55 for you none Roman Numeral readers) is tomorrow. And its time for my annual scientific reasoning of who's going to win this year.
1) Cities
Chiefs: Kansas City, Missouri
A population of 2.1 million, with an occasional earthquake, 4 seasons (snow in winter, heat in summer), and that's all I know.
Bucs: Tampa, Florida
Tampa would win if just did population but rare earthquakes beat out annual hurricanes and a cool snowy winter beats heat and humidity anytime.
Winner: Chiefs
********************
2) Distance From Home City To Site Of Super Bowl
It's being playing IN Tampa, so they obviously win this one.
Winner: Tampa
********************
3) Team Mascot/Logo
Chiefs 7, Bucs 2, 1 tie.
Chiefs:
Bucs:
Dastardly, stealing, thieving pirates with a skull and crossed swords on the flag.
Winner: Chiefs
********************
4) Coaches
Chiefs: Andy Reid
62 years old. Has been an NFL head football coach for 21 years (13 years with the Eagles, 8 years with the Chiefs), this is his third Super Bowl.
Bucs: Bruce Arians
68 years old. Has been an NFL head football coach for 6 years (4 with the Arizona Cardinals, 2 with the Bucs). This is his first Super Bowl.
Winner: Chiefs (due to coach's experience)
********************
5) 2020 Season Record
Chiefs: 14-2
Bucs: 11-5
Winner: Chiefs
********************
6) Quarterback Experience
Chiefs: Patrick Mahomes won the Super Bowl last year
Bucs: Tom Brady has won everything at one time or another
Winner: Bucs
********************
7) Quarterback Face Cuteness
Chiefs: Patrick Mahomes
Winner: Chiefs, no doubt!
********************
8) Quarterback Body Hotness
Chiefs: Mahomes and his 25 year old beach bod.
Bucs: 43 year old Tom Brady middle-aged not-too-bad-for-his-age body.
Hmmm, 25 year old bodies beat 43 year old bodies almost every time...certainly here.
Winner: Chiefs
********************
9) Other Star Player
Chiefs: Tyreek Hill, wide reciever
Bucs: Lavonte David, linebacker
Winner: I don't know, man, I'm gonna have to call this one a tie.
********************
10) Team's Super Bowl Experience
Chiefs: This is the Chiefs 4th appearance. Team record is 2 wins 1 loss
Bucs: This is the Bucs 2nd appearance. Team record is 1 win, zero losses.
The Chiefs have won double Super Bowls than the Bucs.
The Chiefs have double the Super Bowl appearances.
The Bucs have less losses than the Chiefs.
Winner: Chiefs.
********************
SO, by means of this very scientific reasoning of the matchup, the result is
Chiefs 7, Bucs 2, 1 tie.
Therefore, the Chiefs are going to be the first back to back Super Bowl winner since the Patriots 17 years ago or so.

PS
Just so I've got all my prior guesses in one place here we go:
Season My Pick Winner
2019 Chiefs Chiefs
2018 Rams Patriots
2017 neither Eagles
2016 Patriots Patriots
2015 Panthers Broncos
2014 Seahawks Patriots
2013 Seahawks Seahawks
2012 Ravens Ravens
2011 Patriots Giants
2010 Packers Packers
2009 Saints Saints
2008 Cardinals Steelers
2007 Patriots Giants
2006 Colts Colts
2005 Seahawks Steelers
So my record is 7 picked correctly, 7 picked incorrectly, and one I didn't pick at all.
