For all the Swifties who are choosing to care about the Super Bowl for the first time — and all the football fans who need a crash course in Taylor Swift — here is a look at Sunday’s game as seen through Swift’s lyrics.
The two rivals faced each other in Super Bowl LIV in 2020, when the Chiefs dealt the 49ers a devastating loss, 31-20, giving Kansas City its first Super Bowl victory since 1970.
Fans and analysts alike have already begun comparing Mahomes to Tom Brady, who has seven Super Bowl rings to his name.
As Swift says in her song “Blank Space,” “You know I love the players / and you love the game.”
