Ever since the NFL expanded to a 12-team playoff for the 1990 season, 36 playoff teams have advanced to the Super Bowl. During the playoffs, each conference seeds six teams from one to six based on their regular season records and whether or not they won their respective division. In the playoffs, the general trend is that the higher a team's seed, the more likely they will reach the Super Bowl. But does this trend carry over to the Super Bowl? Does a higher seed represent a better chance of winning the big game? This article takes a look at if a team's seed is related to winning the Super Bowl in the NFL's 12-team playoff era.

To date, 18 number one seeded teams from either conference have made it to the Super Bowl, the most recent being the 2007 New England Patriots. If we compared the results of the number one seeded teams that have played in the Super Bowl, eight teams have won and nine have lost. This gives the number one seed a historical probability of 47% to win the Super Bowl. Note if the Patriots win Super Bowl XLII, this would bring the historical probability of winning up to 50% for number one seeds.

Moving on to number two, 10 number two seeded teams from either conference have played in the Super Bowl. Five number two seeds have won the Super Bowl and five have lost, giving the number two seed a historical probability of 50% to win the Super Bowl.

Five wins in twenty-three seasons is not 50/50.  We have a 50/50 shot if we get there but we have to do that first.
