This year's Super Bowl XLIII pits the A F C champion Pittsburgh Steelers (14-4) against the N F C champion Arizona Cardinals (12-7) to decide the National Football League's (NFL) champion for 2008.
Pittsburgh will be going for its sixth Super Bowl win, which would place it in sole possession of the record for most Super Bowl wins. The Cardinals are seeking their first Super Bowl win since 1947 and only the second undisputed league championship in their entire history.
Arizona will be the home team, as is the case for all NFC champions in odd numbered Super Bowls. The Cardinals will wear their red jerseys--the team has predominantly worn red at home since moving into University of Phoenix Stadium in 2006. Previsously the had worn their white jerseys at home for their first 18 years in Arizona to combat the heat.
The Steelers will wear white jerseys for the second consecutive Super Bowl. Pittsburgh is 2-0 lifetime wearing white jerseys in the Super Bowl. They wore them as the "visiting team" against the Minnesota Vikings in Super Bowl IX and against the Seattle Seahawks in Super Bowl XL despite being the "home team" that season.
If past history is any guide, then the Steelers are sure to win SuperBowl XLIII this year. The Steelers have chosen to wear their road uniforms, which are white, against the Arizona Cardinals in Super Bowl XLIII on Sunday, February 1, 2009 in Tampa, Florida. Wearing white has 'helped' the Steelers win the big game in the past.
The home team Cardinals will wear their home red shirts. In Super Bowl XL in February 2006, the Steelers had the option of wearing their black home jerseys; however, they elected to wear white after playing and winning three road playoff games in as many weeks. The Steelers also wore white in Super Bowl IX and defeated the Minnesota Vikings in January 1975.
