What really sews up Super Bowls are three other factors a great rushing attack, helmet-denting defense and an overall confidence level that goes well beyond corky and into the kooky range. Buffalo has all of the above.

Thurman Thomas has attained the kind of versatility that once was Roger Craig's alone. The success of the Bills' hurry-up hurricane Sunday depended on his skills as an outlet receiver, but it was a series of draw play handoffs from the shotgun that showed the Raiders' rust.

Henry Carley, president of the Tampa chapter of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, said Monday that the Super Bowl has served to improve relations between blacks and whites.

But because Tampa Stadium parking lots can accommodate only 1.500 cars, the NFL is thankful for the homeowners-turned-entre-peneurs. "We need all the parking we can get." said Jim Steeg, the NFL's executive director of special events. Residents say they might charge up to S20 per parking space. Vendors, who will peddle shirts, caps and other souvenirs, are offering upwards of S500 to set their stands near the stadium.

The Bills will use the Tampa Bay Buccaneers' locker room.

The trophy awarded to the Super Bowl's Most Valuable Player will have a new name. The game's MVP will receive the Pete Rozelle trophy, named for the longtime commissioner. "No name is more synonymous with the Super Bowl than Pete Rozelle," said Commissioner Paul Tagliabue, who succeeded Rozelle in 1989. "It was Pete's imagination and foresight that made this great event a reality." Rozelle will conduct the coin toss prior to the game. The forecast this week and into the weekend calls for sunny days with highs in the 60s turning into cold nights with temperatures as low as the mid 30s.

And if it happens to rain on game day, prepare to get a little wet. Portable televisions and umbrellas are among the items banned from the stadium as part of increased security for the game Also prohibited are camcorders, still cameras, headset radios, bottles, cans and other containers. Cameras and televisions have been popular items at previous Super Bowls, with flashbulbs popping at the opening kickoff and halftime show.

The host city began tightening security Monday as the AFC champion Buffalo Bills and NFC champion New York Giants arrived. Bob Smith, Tampa's public safety administrator, said 18 law enforcement agencies will assist in the effort to combat possible terrorism resulting from the Persian Gulf war. Besides the banned items, spectators may be asked to pass through metal detectors and X-ray equipment as they enter the stadium. A 6-foot chain-link fence is being erected around the stadium about 50 feet from a permanent fence, creating a buffer zone. In addition, portable concrete barriers are being placed around the stadium to control vehicle and pedestrian traffic.

Smith said 500 officers would be in and around the park on game day and the Federal Aviation Administration is being asked to restrict airspace to 10,000 feet for a half-mile and 3,000 feet for 5 miles around the stadium. The NFL was pleased with the security arrangements for Sunday's conference championship games. "Everything from a security standpoint went very well from the time the gates opened through the postgame celebration," said Roger doubt until the middle of the fourth quarter. The off week was canceled because of a players' strike. Because of the shorter preparation time, the league made one major concession Monday by allowing the assistant coaches to skip today's first interview session at Tampa Stadium so they can work on game preparations.

Bills coach Marv Levy cut short his postgame speech Sunday after Buffalo's 51-3 win to start working on the game plan. Moreover, both teams had assistants start reviewing films of both possible opponents last week. Neither team should have too much problem preparing for the Super Bowl, because the Bills beat the Giants 17-13 five weeks ago. This is the 12th time Steeg has directed the league's preparations for the Super Bowl. "I've done it both ways, and it's obviously a lot easier to do it when you have the extra week," he said.

"There's a lot of things you just can't do until you know who the teams are." One of the biggest obstacles is getting the tickets to the fans of the participating teams. To that end, each team previously held ticket lotteries and the NFL put together travel packages that were refundable if their team lost in the conference championship game. There's also the matter of the players and coaches taking care of their ticket requests. At least players won't have to deal with two weeks of getting reacquainted with their "best friend" in second grade who wants some Super Bowl tickets. Besides the shorter time, Steeg has had two other factors complicate his preparations: additional first 12Vi minutes.
