Kansas City and Philadelphia will face each other in the Super Bowl for the second time in three seasons on Sunday, Feb. 9.

If the Chiefs win Super Bowl LIX, they'll make history as the first NFL team to secure three straight Super Bowl titles. This marks Kansas City's fifth Super Bowl appearance since 2019.

The Eagles are aiming to claim their second Lombardi Trophy, with their first win coming in 2018. As of the latest odds, Kansas City is favored by 1.5 points, and the over/under for total points scored stands at 49.5.

The Oklahoma Sooners are well represented on the remaining active rosters for the Super Bowl. OU leads other schools with 7 active remaining players. Georgia is next followed by Alabama, Clemson, and Florida.
