Super Bowl LI: Everything You Need To Know — Kickoff Time, TV, Point Spread — Plus a $1M Ticket Package

HOUSTON, TX — The fans have arrived, the parties are in full swing, and it's all leading up to the NFL's marquee event, the Super Bowl.

The Falcons are hoping to vanquish Tom Brady's Patriots, and come 5:30 P.M. CST on Sunday, Feb. 5, all eyes will be on Houston's NRG Stadium. Here's a rundown on all of the information you need to enjoy the game.

First, for those of you who will not be in the stadium on Sunday, you should know that Fox will broadcast the game. You can also stream it live on Fox Sports Go.

And it promises to be a good one. The Falcons were the NFC's highest-scoring team this season, averaging 33.8 points a game, while the Patriots achieved the same feat in the AFC, averaging 27.6 points per outing. Brady has never lost to the Falcons, and Matt Ryan, who leads the Falcons as quarterback, has never beaten the Patriots, who will be playing in their record ninth Super Bowl. (Speaking of records, that is one: The Pats with this game surpass the Cowboys, Broncos, and Steelers for most Super Bowl appearances.) This will be the second time the Falcons have made it to the big game.

According to SportsLine, New England is a three-point favorite over Atlanta, and the over-under of 58.5 is the highest ever for a Super Bowl. But not so fast, Brady ... five of the eight CBSSports.com experts are going with the Falcons.

If you happen to still be looking for tickets, here are a few outlets to check out: StubHub, which was listing tickets for around $2,300 on Thursday morning; Ticketnetwork.com, which was selling them for a similar price; and TicketCity (again, around $2,300). For the big spenders out there, TicketCity has something for you: the Million Dollar Super Bowl Package.

How about food? Houston has thousands of restaurants, and we've assembled our Top Seven Restaurants for Super Bowl 51. It's a diverse, eclectic list, and even includes a food truck. Plus, here's an interactive map you'll want to keep handy during your Super Bowl frenzy.
