I heard during last night's Super Bowl that they had 140 footballs on hand for the game, but some believe it is 120. For use in the game, the Host Team and the visiting team each provides 12 balls per game. The balls are inspected before the game to ensure that they meet specifications. Of course each team also has many "non-game" practice balls on hand.
I heard on FOX Sports yesterday that an NFL game starts with 36 footballs. They also commented that a rookie quarterback may have a hard time adjusting to the use of new balls in the NFL as opposed to college play. (Never heard that before yesterday)
