Dierks Bentley heads to Indianapolis on Sunday to perform as part of the festivities leading up to this year’s Super Bowl matchup between the New England Patriots and the New York Giants on Sunday, February 5th. A sports fan, Dierks isn’t necessarily picking a winner (well, he’s not telling us), but he’s looking for a good game between the two titan teams. “I’m really just pulling for a great game,” says Dierks. “As a fan, I just really want to see a game that isn’t over by half-time. I want to see something that goes into the fourth quarter, maybe even deeper. It would be so cool…I was kind of pulling for this rematch in some ways. There are a lot of great story lines to play out in…this year’s playoffs.”

Dierks is getting ready to release his new studio album, Home, February 7th. It features the title track, which is currently scaling the Top 10 on the country charts.

Dierks Bentley (Super Bowl 2012) OC: …be cool. :42

“That’s really tough. I mean, you’ve got 2 teams with great quarterbacks that have Super Bowl history between them. Tom Brady is unbelievable — won so many Super bowls. I think this is his fifth Super Bowl appearance, but the last time these two teams met, Eli won and the Giants. So, I’m really just pulling for a great game. As a fan, I just really want to see a game that isn’t over by half-time. I want to see something that goes into the fourth quarter, maybe even deeper. It would be so cool. I had a chance to be at the last meeting between these two teams in Phoenix, and saw the catch and all this stuff. So it was a great game. I was kind of pulling for this rematch in some ways. There are a lot of great story lines to play out in this particular, this year’s playoffs. But I have a feeling that…a little payback. It’s gonna be cool.”
