    The Super Bowl is probably the highest viewed single game in American 
sports.  For one it it hyped for two weeks before it is even played.  That, 
and the Super Bowl is as much or more an event than sports.  Remember, I 
said the Big Dance is the biggest thing in COLLEGE Sports.  And, to my 
knowledge it is.


   Mike Ditka said the other day the Big Dance was bigger than the Super 
Bowl.  I think that is probably true when you compare the whole tournament 
to the Super Bowl.  I doubt that is the case if you just compare the 
championship game against the Super Bowl.
