Well, for a little while there in the fourth quarter I was getting pretty nervous - the Ravens were gaining momentum and were within just a field goal of winning - but the Steelers pulled off the win (23-14) against the Baltimore Ravens and are headed to Tampa for Superbowl XLIII on February 1st!
Polamalu ended any hope Baltimore had left in the final minutes by putting the nail in the coffin - intercepting the ball and running it 40 yards for a touchdown. It was a perfect ending to a (very) long and grueling game!
On a side note: Here's hoping Ravens star Willie McGahee is ok after a devastating hit by Ryan Clark of the Steelers (also dazed and confused after the hit but able to walk off under his own power).... McGahee was carted off the field but appeared to be moving all his extremities. Nasty!
The Steelers will be heavy favorites to win Superbowl XLIII against the Arizona Cardinals - who have never been to the big show before. Well, they might have gotten there, but I hope they don't think it'll be easy against our formidable "D".
GO STEELERS !!!
