PREDICTIONS
As for what will happen when the teams actually take the field, we asked Maryland Heights' high school football coaches to offer up expert analysis:
Parkway North Head Coach Bob Bunton
A great match-up of two solid teams and coaching brothers. I'll go with the 49ers 23-13 due to their defense and the athleticism at QB.
Pattonville Head Coach Steve Smith
Though I'd like to see the Ravens win the Super Bowl, I predict the 49ers will win by 3 touchdowns. I believe the 49ers will attack Terrell Suggs in the running game, and Ray Lewis in the passing game. As inspiring as Ray Lewis has been, he's the obvious pass game mismatch for 49ers and they'll take advantage of it. The 49ers will also use Terrell Suggs' aggression against him, making him the read key in their zone/read scheme. The game will be very interesting and fun to watch but I see it as The 49ers 38, The Ravens 17.
