The highly anticipated Super Bowl LX takes place today at Levi’s Stadium in Santa Clara, California, where the AFC champion New England Patriots will face the NFC champion Seattle Seahawks. The Patriots reached the Super Bowl by dominating the AFC playoffs with a defense that has allowed only 8.7 points per game, the lowest in three postseason games since the 2000 Baltimore Ravens, while scoring an average of 18 points per game, marking the fewest for a team entering a Super Bowl since the 1979 Los Angeles Rams, reports Baltimore Chronicle via NBC Sports. The Seahawks, in contrast, have cruised through the season with a +230 point differential, the fourth-best for any Super Bowl team in the 21st century and the highest since the 2015 Carolina Panthers (+233).
Pregame coverage for Super Bowl LX begins at 1 p.m. ET on NBC, featuring five and a half hours of analysis, commentary, and predictions. Maria Taylor will host, joined by co-hosts Noah Eagle and Jac Collinsworth. Fans can tune in early to catch team breakdowns and interviews with key players ahead of kickoff.
Kickoff between the Patriots and Seahawks is scheduled for approximately 6:30 p.m. ET, with live broadcasts on NBC and Peacock. The game is expected to follow the usual Super Bowl pacing, with potential stops for commercials, reviews, and on-field delays.
The halftime show, headlined by Bad Bunny, is projected to start between 7:30 p.m. ET and 8:30 p.m. ET, depending on the flow of the game. Fans can expect a performance featuring elaborate staging and visuals, while Charlie Puth will perform the national anthem prior to kickoff.
Super Bowl LX typically lasts around 3 hours and 37 minutes, based on averages from 2005-2024. If this year’s matchup aligns with historical timing, the game could conclude near 10:07 p.m. ET. However, extended drives or additional stoppages could lengthen the contest. Notably, when these teams last met in the Super Bowl XLIX following the 2014 NFL season, the game ran for 3 hours and 36 minutes, nearly identical to the historical average.
Fans across the United States and internationally will follow every play, as the Patriots and Seahawks aim to secure the NFL’s ultimate prize, making this year’s Super Bowl a must-watch event for football enthusiasts.
