Super Bowl ads don't score

To some people, the Super Bowl is a football game. To others, it's a marketing derby. "Careers are made, and careers are ended, on these commercials we're about to see," said Lewis Williams, a senior vice president, creative director, at Leo Burnett Worldwide Inc., a Chicago-based advertising agency. Williams was addressing more than 100 attendees of the fourth annual "Super Advertising Bowl" at Washington University's Olin School of Business while Sunday's game was starting on a giant-screen above him. Every year, MBA students, their friends, WUSTL faculty and ad execs like Williams gather to rank the Super Bowl ads.
