Super Bowl 60 will be a rematch of the big game from 11 years ago.

ESPN’s computer model has little doubt about who will win Super Bowl 60 between the Seattle Seahawks and New England Patriots.

Very few fans and analysts thought the Seahawks and Patriots would make the playoffs at the start of the year, let alone win their respective conference championships. But both 14-3 clubs exceeded expectations, setting up a compelling Super Bowl 60 showdown at Levi’s Stadium on Feb. 8.

Mike Macdonald’s Seahawks are a considerable favorite over New England. But the game couldn’t look much more evenly matched on paper, as both teams finished in the top four in scoring offense and scoring defense.

ESPN’s Football Power Index agrees with the general public, too. The FPI gives the Seahawks a 60.1 percent chance to win Super Bowl 60, with the Patriots as a significant underdog at 39.9 percent.

Kickoff for Super Bowl 60 is 6:30 p.m. EST. Bad Bunny will headline the Super Bowl 60 halftime show, with Green Day also performing.

Drake Maye’s Patriots defeated the Denver Broncos 10-7 in a snow-filled affair. The Broncos’ offense got little going with star quarterback Bo Nix sidelined with a season-ending ankle injury.

Seattle held off the rival Los Angeles Rams 31-27 in a thrilling back-and-forth quarterback duel between Darnold and Matthew Stafford. This is the Seahawks’ first Super Bowl appearance in 11 years, when they lost to New England in Super Bowl 49.

The rematch of Super Bowl 49 is one fascinating storyline, even if both coaches and rosters are much different from 2014. Can New England kick-start another possible dynasty? Or will Seattle get long-awaited revenge?

Both teams are loaded with game-changers on both sides of the ball. This could be a defensive slugfest or a shootout similar to what we saw in the NFC Championship Game. Throw in the fascinating chess match between Macdonald and Mike Vrabel, and you have the makings of what could be an epic Super Bowl.

Luka Doncic ‘destroys’ the Mavs on his return. Gets standing ovation and shows love to Mark Cuban

Luka Doncic hits 45 points in his first game in Dallas since being traded to the Los Angeles.

It’s rare for a home crowd to cheer the visiting team, but Luka Doncic’s return to Dallas was no ordinary night.

Just days before February’s trade deadline, the Mavericks shocked the NBA by sending their 26-year-old superstar to the Lakers—a move that outraged fans and sparked backlash toward GM Nico Harrison.

On Wednesday, Doncic played his first game back in Dallas since the trade. The arena was filled with fans in both his old Mavs and new Lakers jerseys, many chanting “Fire Nico” in protest.

Despite the emotion in the air, Doncic delivered a dominant performance, scoring a game-high 45 points to lead the Lakers to a 112-97 win. It was a powerful return for one of the league’s brightest stars—and a night Dallas won’t soon forget

The Mavericks pay tribute to Luka Dončić

While the Mavericks’ decision to trade Luka Doncic remains heavily criticized, they handled his return to Dallas with undeniable grace. The organization made sure his first game back as a Laker was met with respect and appreciation.

Every seat in the arena was draped with a T-shirt reading “Hvala za vse,” which translates from Slovenian to “thank you for everything.” It was a thoughtful nod to Doncic’s heritage and impact on the franchise.

Before tip-off, during the starting lineup announcements, the Mavericks played a tribute video showcasing some of Doncic’s most iconic moments in a Dallas jersey. The emotional gesture clearly resonated—moving Doncic to tears in front of the crowd that once called him their own.

Luka Doncic ‘DESTROYS’ his old team

Luka delivered a dazzling performance against his former team, putting up 45 points on 16-of-28 shooting, including 7-of-10 from beyond the arc. He also added 8 rebounds6 assists, and 4 steals in a game that showed exactly why he’s one of the best in the league.


From the opening tip, Doncic was locked in. By halftime, Doncic had racked up 31 points on 11-of-16 shooting in just 19 minutes—marking the 10th time in his career he’s scored 30 or more in a single half.

Though his scoring slowed in the second half, he continued to lead effectively, securing both a Lakers win and an unforgettable showing for the fans in Dallas.
