I wonder... can the SB end in a tie? I'd bet not, but there must be special OT rules just for SB...

<googling>

"What differs between the playoffs and the regular season is simple: the game cannot end in a tie in the postseason, and that of course counts for the Super Bowl. The overtime period is a 15-minute frame in which both teams get three timeouts apiece. If the game is tied after that first frame, they'll play as many 15-minute periods as needed until one of them scores."

I've been to several MLB games that lasted more than 20 innings... imagine a SB going 8-10 quarters... would the refs still be upright and conscious?
