It looks like the football players will be the only ones scoring Sunday night.

Seriously.

An online survey found that 73 percent of women would rather watch the Super Bowl than have sex. Men are split down the middle on their preferred activity, according to the online dating site Zoosk.

More than 1,000 people answered a variety of questions related to the two big games -- the Super Bowl and love.

Among other findings, men and woman agree the hottest player on the field will be the Steelers' Ryan Clark. And 57 percent of survey takers said they're most excited about the game itself, while 20 percent are looking forward to the commercials.

The survey also asked singles to pick which NFL player would make the best drinking buddy.

The guys' choice? Brett Favre. The ladies voted for Tom Brady.

So who wins Sunday? Flip a coin. It's anyone's guess.
