Projected starters and key players for the Super Bowl...
Preparing their respective teams for Super Bowl XLVII might have been easier for John and Jim Harbaugh than having to downplay the distraction of becoming the first brothers to coach against one another on the NFL's biggest stage.
Jerry Rice has chosen his sparkly Super Bowl ring, one of three he owns, to wear for Sunday's big game. And with good reason.
If the idea was simple, so was the way former Nevada coach Chris Ault went about mapping it out. White tape on the floor of the locker room. A rolled-up towel to simulate a football. And out of that came an offense that could win the San Francisco 49ers a Super Bowl.
This Super Bowl is one of comebacks, of firsts and lasts, and — if San Francisco wins — the best. A win over the Baltimore Ravens on Sunday gives the 49ers six championships, matching Pittsburgh's record number of titles in the Super Bowl era.
The San Francisco 49ers completed their final on-field preparations for the Super Bowl on Saturday with a 15-minute walk-through under the Superdome lights before Sunday's game against the Baltimore Ravens.
As the 49ers and Ravens prepare for Super Bowl XLVII, many pundits and commentators try to compare the two cities off the football field. So, here is our cultural comparisons between San Francisco and Baltimore as the cities get ready to face off.

For the third straight day, San Francisco linebackers Ahmad Brooks (shoulder) and Aldon Smith (shoulder) were both limited participants in practice. However, that shouldn't affect their availability for the Super Bowl.
Two of the league's most imposing inside linebackers both happen to wear No. 52. Aside from the number, Lewis and Willis are as different as they come. Lewis is emotional, loud and brash. Willis is soft-spoken and happy to stay behind the scenes.
Gov. Jerry Brown was one of the few California politicians yet to announce a bet on Sunday's Super Bowl matchup, until he offered up a characteristically esoteric wager.
If Crabtree and Kaepernick can pull off another outstanding outing in the game of their lives, they'll take the podium together again for an entertaining back and forth of compliments and good-natured ribbing.
Right guard Alex Boone arrives for work most days and swears at left guard Mike Iupati. From Boone, it's always considered a term of endearment directed at his 49ers offensive linemates.
The San Francisco 49ers wrapped up their final practice before the Super Bowl a little early Friday, with coach Jim Harbaugh offering praise for the way Colin Kaepernick has handled the three days of work in New Orleans.

San Francisco Mayor Ed Lee is making one of his biggest bets yet on the 49ers when the team takes on the Baltimore Ravens in the Super Bowl this Sunday, city officials said.
John Madden told the KCBS Radio morning crew he likes the 49ers in the Super Bowl, "(But) it's going to be a tough game, I think it's going to be a physical game, I think it's going to be a close game."
Working separately, John and Jim Harbaugh each guided their team to the Super Bowl. They will be on opposite sidelines Sunday, John as head coach of the Baltimore Ravens and Jim with the San Francisco 49ers.
"This is a great match-up," John Madden told the KCBS Radio morning crew. But he likes the 49ers in Sunday's Super Bowl.
If the 49ers are to beat the Baltimore Ravens in Super Bowl XLVII, it will take a team effort. The Ravens play for the guy next to them, and will be a problem not only for the talent they have on the field, but also for the bond that holds them together. It's a good thing the 49ers have played as one unit all year and will be entering the Super Bowl the better team, and clicking on both sides of the ball.
