Super Bowl XXXVII was the thirty-seventh Super Bowl game. It featured a match up between the NFC Champions, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and the AFC Champions, the Oakland Raiders. Tampa Bay won the game 48-21. The halftime show featured Shania Twain, No Doubt and Sting.

This game was especially notable as it pitted first year head coach of the Buccaneers Jon Gruden against the team he had coached just the season before. Gruden was traded to the Buccaneers in exchange for multiple draft picks and 8 million dollars in cash in the off-season.[5]
