the Seahawk's defense is better than GB's?

We spent some time betting in Vegas during college football season and it seemed like the overs were always the way to go.

What do you think about the deflating of the footballs? When this first came out people were

grip - especially in the game. Should be an easy thing to figure out - just weigh the balls of
both teams ?
