OK, here is the Final Round of Super Bowl trivia. Kind of a little bit of this, and a little bit of that:

OK, Final Answers. After this and the end of the season I may lay off the trivia for a while.

1.A. Which current Pac-10 schools have produced a Super Bowl winning QB?

Stanford: Plunkett and Elway

Cal: Rodgers

UCLA: Aikman

Washington St.: Rypien

B. Which current Pac-10 schools have produced a Super Bowl losing QB?

Stanford: Elway

Cal: Joe Kapp, Craig Morton, Vince Ferragamo (included because he transferred from Cal to Nebraska)

UCLA: Kilmer

Washington: Chris Chandler

Washington St.: Bledsoe

2. What is unique about these, and only these players:

Cornelius Bennett, Tom Brady, John Elway, Adam Vinatieri, Charles Haley, Matt Light?

The only 5 players to start in 5 Super Bowl games. I will have to check but I think there others that may have appeared in 5 or more....but did not start.

3. Who has the record for the longest return of a fumble in a Super Bowl game?

Leon Lett 64 yards...but of course it was not for a TD because of his showboat antics and the hustle of Don Beebe.

4. Who has the record for the longest punt return in a Super Bowl game? Hint: better know for other achievements.

John Taylor of the 49ers...45 yards.

5. Three persons won a Super Bowl as both a player and a Head Coach. Name these 3 people.

Tom Flores...player with Chiefs in 1969 and as HC with Raiders in 1980 and 1983

Mike Ditka...player with the Cowboys in 1971 and as HC with Bears in 1985

Tony Dungy...player with Steelers in 1978 and as HC of Colts in 2006

6. What is the biggest deficit a team has overcome to win a Super Bowl game?

10 points: Redskins vs. Broncos, and Saints vs. Colts

7. What has been the closest geographical Super Bowl matchup of teams in history?

The Indianapolis Colts vs. Chicago Bears involved cities separated by 164 miles.

There of course has never been one of those inter-region games like Jets/Giants or Raiders/49ers or Redskins/Ravens....but it could happen someday.

Of course the "Never could have been Super Bowl" i.e. Browns vs. Lions....teams never appearing, would be a closer geographical matchup if you go by the way the crow flies. Only like 120 miles.

8. Who are the only 2 artists to have performed at halftime of both the Super Bowl and the Grey Cup?

Shania Twain and The Black Eyed Peas. Mazeltov!

9. A. Every head coach who led their teams during the first 10 Super Bowls is in the Hall of Fame....but two. Can you name those two HCs

John Rauch of the 1967 Raiders and Don McCafferty of the 1970 Colts.

B. Now name the HCs in those first 10 games who are in the HOF.

They have been mentioned: Lombardi/Stram/Ewbank/Shula/Grant/Landry/Allen/Noll/Madden

10. They have been keeping track of the commercials that are aired during the Super Bowl since like 1975. During last year's Super Bowl, there were ads for 5 upcoming movies aired during the SB. Name as many of these 5 movies as you can.

Battleship

The Lorax

The Avengers

John Carter

Act of Valor

11. In all the years they have been advertizing films during the Super Bowl game....only one movie that was advertised for during the Super Bowl won the Academy Award for Best Picture of the Year. What movie?

Gladiator (appropriate?)

12. A. What Super Bowl winning QB had the highest passer rating in that game?

Phil Simms 150.92 in SB 21

B. What Super Bowl winning QB had the lowest passer rating in that game?

Ben Roethlisberger in SB 40 22.6

Bonus: You get the final turn.... Ask YOUR Super Bowl Trivia question!

I'd also say the Budweiser commercial with the people in the airport randomly standing and applauding for what appears to be no reason until you see it's a group of Marines walking through the aiport is also a fantastic one.

Joe Namath/Farrah Fawcett Noxema

The "I'm Going to Disney World" commercials

Last Year's Ferris Beuhler spoof commercial with Mathew Broderick

On his trivia...wouldn't what is the "best commercial" be subjective?

Nevertheless, here are some possible candidates:

The Mean Joe Greene "Hey Kid" Coke commercial

"1984" Apple introduces the MacIntosh

Budweiser Frogs (and Louie the Lizard)

Bud "Herding Cats"

Bud "9/11. Clydesdale cross Brooklyn Bridge while NYC skyline still smoulders

Chrysler's Eminem "Lose Yourself" ode to Detroit commercial
