The Cincinnati Bengals will square off with the Los Angeles Rams in Super Bowl 56.

Super Bowl 56 will be between the Cincinnati Bengals and the Los Angeles Rams.

A pair of No. 4 seeds will duke it out on Sunday evening for the right to hoist the Lombardi Trophy. Should the Bengals defeat the Rams, it will be their first Super Bowl championship in franchise history. If the Rams do hold serve at home, they will win their second Super Bowl and their first calling Los Angeles home. The Rams won their only Super Bowl when they played in St. Louis.

So what time does the big game commence? Super Bowl 56 will kick off from SoFi Stadium in Inglewood, California on Sunday, Feb. 13 at 6:30 p.m. ET, 3:30 p.m. PT. The game will be broadcasted on NBC and streaming live on Peacock.

Super Bowl 56: What time does the game start?

Though the game may not be completely underway by 6:30 p.m. ET, 3:30 p.m. PT, you might want to tune into NBC or have the Peacock stream going a few minutes before hand. Again, this is the first time the Bengals have played in the Super Bowl in years. While the Rams were in it only four years ago in Atlanta, this is the first time the Super Bowl will be held at beautiful SoFi Stadium.

What these two teams getting to the big game signifies is you are not going anywhere if you do not get the quarterback position right. The Bengals were a laughingstock until drafting Joe Burrow out of LSU two years ago. Though the Rams had some success with Jared Goff under center, trading for Matthew Stafford with the Detroit Lions has Los Angeles on the brink of a league title.

Be sure to have NBC on or Peacock going by 6:30 p.m. ET, 3:30 p.m. PT this Super Bowl Sunday.
