As the Divisional Playoffs have ended, we now know which officiating crew will be working this year’s Super Bowl.

Over the past few seasons, postseason assignment patterns have become clear which makes it possible to make a prediction.

No prediction is needed as the NFL has announced that Bill Vinovich and his crew will be the referees of Super Bowl LVIII.

The Super Bowl officials are selected from the pool of 28 on-field officials who worked the Divisional Playoffs.

The 62-year-old Vinovich is in his 18th season and 15th as referee. He was the referee for Super Bowl XLIX and Super Bowl LIV so with the announcement, he now becomes the 8th referee in league history to work at least 3 Super Bowls at the referee position.

Of course, not everyone was a fan of the announcement, as Vinovich is best-known for officiating the 2018 NFC Championship Game between the Rams and Saints, which ended with the infamous “NOLA No-Call”

The minimum requirements applied for Super Bowl officials:

5 years of NFL experience
3 years as NFL referee
1 postseason game as a referee in a previous season

Super Bowl LVIII umpire Terry Killens is in his 5th season. Down judge Patrick Holt and line judge Mark Perlman got the call to officiate Super Bowl LVIII.

At field judge, Tom Hill, gets the call as he will be retiring at the end of the season and will ride off into the sunset after officiating his 4th Super Bowl.

Allen Baynes will be the Super Bowl LVIII side judge. Back judge Brad Freeman and Replay Official Mike Chase round out the officiating.
