Who plays in the Super Bowl?
The NFL is split into 2 conferences, the American Football Conference (AFC) and the National Football Conference (NFC). Each of these conferences features 16 teams, further split into 4 geographic divisions. At the end of the regular season, the team with the best record in each of the 8 divisions qualifies for the playoffs, along with 3 wild card teams from each conference. The playoffs comprise a series of single elimination games, and by the penultimate round, each conference crowns its season champion. The AFC Champions then take on the NFC Champions in the Super Bowl, to determine the single team who will claim the NFL Championship.
Which teams will play in the Super Bowl this season?
