Sunday Sports Update
Top: Super Bowl Sunday is here, and the Cincinnati Bengals and Los Angeles Rams will be battling this evening in Super Bowl LVI to lift the coveted Vince Lombardi Trophy. The Bengals, who are making their first Super Bowl appearance since the 1988 season, enter the contest as a four-point underdog after beating the Raiders, Titans and Chiefs in the AFC Playoffs. The Rams, who are making their second Super Bowl appearance in four years, will have the advantage of their home field and one of the league's top defenses. WDOE (94.9 FM/101.5 FM/1410 AM) will have wall-to-wall coverage of Super Bowl LVI, beginning at 2:00 PM, leading up to kickoff at 6:30 PM. Photo by the National Football League
