President Trump almost perfectly predicted the Super Bowl outcome.

During his pre-Super Bowl interview with Fox News's Bill O'Reilly, Trump predicted the New England Patriots would win.

"By how many points?" O'Reilly asked.

"By eight points," Trump replied.

The final outcome -- which for the first Super Bowl was decided in a sudden death overtime -- was Patriots 34, the Falcons 28.

Here's the full exchange:

O'REILLY: "Fox Sports is demanding that I ask you to make a prediction."

TRUMP: "Well I hate to make predictions."

O'REILLY: "But you have to."

TRUMP: "But I hate to do it. But I'll say --"

O'REILY: "-- Because I won't leave unless you do."

TRUMP: "I'll say -- I don't know, what are the odds? I guess it's pretty even, right? Two great teams."

O'REILLY: "Yeah."

TRUMP: "I'll say the Patriots will win."

O'REILLY: "By how many points?"

TRUMP: "By eight points."

O'REILLY: "That's a good presidential prediction."

TRUMP: "I shouldn't be doing those things but that's OK."

O'REILLY: "And you don't need any data."

TRUMP: "I need no data."
