The 411 on Super Bowl XLVIII

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at Clemson chapter.

Here’s everything you need to know about the 48th Super Bowl:

Who: Denver Broncos v. Seattle Seahawks

So basically, Peyton Manning versus the Seahawks

When: Sunday, February 2 at 6:30 (aka Groundhog Day)

Where: MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, NJ

This stadium is the home of the New York Giants and the New York Jets. It is the only NFL stadium shared by two teams.

The forecast for this weekend in New Jersey is unusually cold. But with the way the weather has been so far this winter, that shouldn’t really surprise anyone. This is also the first Super Bowl to be played outside in a cold weather environment.

How to impress with a little football jargon:

  1. This should be an interesting game because the Denver Broncos have the best offense and the Seattle Seahawks have the best defense.
  2. The 2014 Super Bowl is the first time in 11 years that the top offense and defense will meet.
  3. Both teams enter the game with records of 13-3.
