MINNEAPOLIS — This year's Super Bowl matchup is officially set and, once again, the Minnesota Vikings aren't involved.Despite another season ending with an early playoff exit, Vikings fans will still get together and enjoy the big game with plenty of food and a few alcoholic beverages.

The Green Bay Packers survived an early-season injury to Jordan Love, won seven of eight games after a 2-2 start and clinched a playoff berth at 11-4 but then limped into the postseason, losing back-to-back games to division rivals before falling 22-10 to the Philadelphia Eagles to open the playoffs as the NFC’s No. 7 seed.
