NEW YORK and LOS ANGELES, Oct. 28 /PRNewswire/ -- The Pittsburgh Steelers vs. New Orleans Saints matchup ranks #1 on the NFL Ticket Exchange "Buzz Index" for Week 8 according to the NFL Ticket Exchange by Ticketmaster.

The two most recent Super Bowl champs will face off in a high-profile, primetime battle on Halloween night. The Steelers (5-1) narrowly defeated the Dolphins in Miami last Sunday to improve to 3-0 on the road this season. With QB Ben Roethlisberger back behind center and one of the best defenses in the league, Pittsburgh appears to possess the magic potion to better their record in the Big Easy this week.

While the Saints (4-3), who were bewitched by the Cleveland Browns at home last week, are prepared to make a statement with this matchup. QB Drew Brees and team will be anxious to bury last week's loss and get back to business on their home turf.

So who'll be doling out the tricks and who'll be enjoying the treats this Halloween? With a nation of football fans watching, both teams will be looking to scare up a victory in the Superdome on Sunday night.
