Super Bowl 2011 Score: World Awaits Epic Fourth Quarter Showdown in Indy

We are about to see an instant Classic, so don't blink. 

The New England Patriots proved that this would not be a New York Giants love fest. Sure, the game started with the Giants pounding away at the Patriots' line and ripping home a safety. 

After three quarters of tug and pull, the New England Patriots hold a slim 17-15 lead over the New York Giants. 

They Giants had the better of offensive production for most of the first half. The game belonged to Tom Coughlin and his carefully-crafted G-Men attack. 

But that wasn't how this game was supposed to end. 

We have known for two weeks now that we would get and epic clash. The balance of offensive prowess sat on an even keel, and there was nothing else to do but expect a wildly entertaining game. 

It all started with a late second-quarter drive that saw the Patriots in the end zone after a first half of futility. 

Through three quarters, this game is scratching me right where I itch. Tom Brady has 212 yards and two touchdowns, and Eli Manning has answered with 178 yards and a TD of his own. 

Both have delivered the types of games that go to the man holding the MVP trophy. Going into the ultimate in quarters, both leaders have the stats, and only need the one moment to solidify a magical season. 

This game has all the elements of a last-minute drive that will deliver us a punch to the gut that will make us smile for weeks. 

Like David Tyree catching the impossible, or Mike Jones tackling Kevin Dyson at the half-yard line, we will have some unbelievable moments take place right before our very eyes.

It's been a wild rise so far, and that just means we will have an equally amazing ending soon enough.
