Korkie Posted January 25, 2005 Share Posted January 25, 2005 How do they decide who wears what jerseys? I hope its the Pats in white vs. Eagles in green (I love the Bird's whites, but I don't like the green pants or the Pats blues.)Being an Eagles fan I wanted to see if dark vs. white mattered, like black and red with blackjack or it was random. So I did a little research about what color jerseys the winning team wore during the Super Bowls they played in just to see if there are any kind of trends. Pretty interesting actually. Here's what I came up with:Super Bowl # Winner Jersey ColorI Packers DarksII Packers WhitesIII Jets WhitesIV Chiefs DarksV Colts WhitesVI Cowboys WhitesVII Dolphins WhitesVIII Dolphins DarksIX Steelers WhitesX Steelers DarksXI Raiders WhitesXII Cowboys WhitesXIII Steelers DarksXIV Steelers DarksXV Raiders WhitesXVI 49ers WhitesXVII Redskins WhitesXVIII Raiders DarksXIX 49ers DarksXX Bears WhitesXXI Giants DarksXXII Redskins WhitesXXIII 49ers DarksXXIV 49ers WhitesXXV Giants DarksXXVI Redskins WhitesXXVII Cowboys WhitesXXVIII Cowboys WhitesXXIX 49ers Darks* (see below)XXX Cowboys WhitesXXXI Packers DarksXXXII Broncos DarksXXXIII Broncos WhitesXXXIV Rams WhitesXXXV Ravens WhitesXXXVI Patriots DarksXXXVII Buccaneers DarksXXXVIII Patriots Darks*Note: Red Throwbacks(here ya go jrodsep, you made me acknowledge them, but I still think they are ugly as a bowling shoe)Teams wearing white jerseys have won 20 of the 38 Super Bowls or 52.6 %, but teams wearing dark jerseys have won the last 3.

Puckguy14 Posted January 25, 2005 Share Posted January 25, 2005 They alternate the "home team" in the Super Bowl. Odd years, NFC and even years AFC.

TFoA Posted January 25, 2005 Share Posted January 25, 2005 Yeah, that list might be a bit messed up because of the Cowboys and Redskins and their love of wearing white jerseys at home. But it's still a pretty interesting list Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cyclopsis Joe Posted January 25, 2005 Share Posted January 25, 2005 I always thought they should get to wear their darks at the Super Bowl..unless it was like, Raiders V. Falcons (yeah right)..then it'd be odd. I don't speak for democrats, democrats don't speak for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Korkie Posted January 25, 2005 Author Share Posted January 25, 2005 Puckguy, thanks for the answer. Flame, I thought about that too. If i was the Bills I would have totally screwed with the Cowboys and made them wear the blues when I had the chance. Couldn't have hurt, lol.

mac Posted January 25, 2005 Share Posted January 25, 2005 we've been pretty lucky the last couple of years. The team with the bad white uniform has worn the darks. giants, titans, patriots. The only bad one in recent years was the panthers last year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Korkie Posted January 26, 2005 Author Share Posted January 26, 2005 I will be suprised if the Eagles dont wear their greens itd be kinda cool if they wore the black jerseys I've tried so hard to get into the black jerseys and i just can't do it. They just don't feel right to me as an Eagles fan. I think the way to save the black jerseys would be green numbers with silver outline/shadows.About the green jerseys: before games Eagles radio PBP guy Merrill Reese always describes the jerseys each team is wearing that day and on Sunday he called the Eagles green jersey/white pant set their "getting down to serious business" uniforms .

slapshot Posted January 26, 2005 Share Posted January 26, 2005 That game wasn't embarrassing. It was a close game at halftime. It took Desmond Howard's kickoff return TD to blow the game open, but it wasn't a massacre like Super Bowl XX.

NJTank Posted January 26, 2005 Share Posted January 26, 2005 Super Bowl XXXI was not that good the Packers won but it was Desmond Howard skick return, Favre didnt havea great game,a dn teh Pats were side tracked with Parcless in negotiations with the Jets, add teh 4th Quarter was 0-0 and its was an overall game that was not a classic. www.sportsecyclopedia.com For the best in sports history go to the Sports E-Cyclopedia at http://www.sportsecyclopedia.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
