Super Bowl 47: TV Schedule, Preview, Betting Lines, Iowa Ties
The Baltimore Ravens and San Francisco 49ers face off in Super Bowl XLVII on Sunday. Iowa ties include the Harbaugh brothers, Aldon Smith, Marshal Yanda and Kelechi Osemele.

When the Baltimore Ravens and San Francisco 49ers meet in Super Bowl 47, there will be no shortage of Iowa story lines.
1. The coaches
The coaches of both teams used to live in Iowa. It's not as random as it might seem. Jim Harbaugh, coach of the 49ers, and John Harbaugh, coach of the Ravens, are brothers. It will be the first time brothers have faced off in the Super Bowl.

The Harbaughs lived in Iowa City for three years from 1971-1973, when dad Jack Harbaugh was an assistant football coach at University of Iowa. The Harbaughs lived in a home on the west side of town and the boys attended Iowa City Catholic Grade School, the Iowa City Press-Citizen reports.
2. Ravens offensive line

Two of the staples on the offensive line, which some say is a key reason for the Ravens' success, went to college in Iowa.
Both both guards are Iowa products.
Marshal Yanda, on the right side, attended University of Iowa. He's a Pro Bowl player and considered one of the best at his position. On the left side is rookie Kelechi Osemele, who played at Iowa State University.
They are somewhat less known but just as valuable as fellow line mate Michael Oher, who was the focus of the movie "The Blind Side."
3. 49ers defensive star
Aldon Smith, the star outside linebacker for San Francisco, lived in Cedar Rapids and attended school at Cedar Rapids Washington.
Smith had the NFL record for quarterback sacks when he hit a late season dry spell. Analysts say Aldon Smith's output on Super Bowl Sunday could be a key to victory for the 49ers.
