Hey, so the SuperBowl is over and it will be a while before the Seahawks take the field, but that's no reason to stop thinking about football. A statistics class at the University of Washington wanted to know if a football travels farther or stays in the air longer when it is filled with something other than air. Check out the link to the Seattle Times report for some good science.

Doesn't it make you wonder how to make a baseball travel farther, or a soccer ball go faster or how to get the volleyball just over the net?
