The game is this Sunday in America, but due to the time difference will kick off at roughly 10.30am (AEDST).

Where can I watch?

Unless you're planning to fly to Houston and watch the game there, the Super Bowl will be screened live on both 7mate and ESPN.

If I can't watch, can I follow online?

Yes, Fairfax will be running a live blog from before kick-off until after the final whistle.
