Apparently over the last 8 football season, the Madden people have predicted correctly the winner of the Super Bowl seven times. Here is a link to this year's preview where they pick Green Bay to win it all...

Edit they are 7/8 now, not 8/8.

No it was right the first time. The only improvement that could have been made would be to add a sentence that states: "Hopefully they pick the Colts to go winless as well."

The difference is that the simulation Juzam is talking about was done in the Pre Season before any games were played. The simulation you are talking about was done after the conference championship games but before the Superbowl.
