Microsoft says Tom Brady and New England Patriots will win NFL Super Bowl LI tonight

BingSuperBowl

Today is Super Bowl Sunday, and I am so excited. Yesterday I went to the grocery store and bought chicken wings, fried mozzarella sticks, and seven-layer dip. By halftime, I will probably be in a food coma.

As a New Yorker and Jets fan, I don't have a horse in the race, but I do have a team that I am rooting for -- the Atlanta Falcons. Why? Because the Patriots have already won many championships, and quite frankly, New York and New England generally have a hardcore sports rivalry. Unfortunately for me and some others, according to Microsoft, Tom Brady and team will be victorious tonight.

You see, the company's "Bing Predicts" functionality from its search engine is using data to determine that the Patriots will be winning Super Bowl LI. To see this for yourself, simply go to Bing.com and do a search for "who will win the super bowl".

Before you lose all hope, Falcons fans, it is important to look at the percentage. Microsoft is saying the Patriots have a mere 52 percent chance of winning. In other words, it is arguably insignificant -- Bing is not saying it will be a blowout. Not to mention, while Bing Predicts has a good track record, it is not infallible. Ultimately, this could be a very close game and either team could be victorious.

Do you agree with Microsoft that Tom Brady and the New England Patriots will win Super Bowl 51 tonight? Sound off in the comments.
