All burgundy Uniforms Sunday

So home team decides what color. Who gets to choose in the SB?

So the Taylor Jacobs Burgundy on Burgundy uniform was a preseason photo and never actually worn in a game?

have a pic of that? i know i've never seen it in any game.

It's not the clothing, but the man in the clothes, and the heart in the man!

Dead on. Uniforms don't make plays. The players have to play!!! They could show up as Coach Hanky Spanky. Make the play!!!

So home team decides what color. Who gets to choose in the SB?

The designated home team.

How do you become the designated home team?

I think it just alternates year to year.

Once a team declares what color jersey they are wearing there is no going back. There was one incident though last season when the Chargers were hosting the Broncos early in the season and the Chargers elected to wear their whites at home. The Broncos informed them that they thought the Chargers were wearing their darks at home and only packed their white uni's. Which was later determined by the league to be bullshit and fined the Broncos $25,000 for it. It came down to the Chargers wanting the Broncos in their dark uni's in the hot Cali sun. As for the burgundy on burgundy they never ever wore it!! -Summo

Nice insight, makes sense that they can't go back on their word. I assume the road team needs to know which uni's to bring with them.

Nothing like a bunch of guys sitting around talking about fashion... ;)

How do you become the designated home team?

Guys, I always thought the Home Team for the Super Bowl was the team with the best record. In the case of a tie record, they move to some sort of tie breaker. In the past several years, however, I don't think the two Superbowl teams have had the same records, so the home team is the best team going in.

Isn't that how it works?

The designated "home team" alternates between the NFC team in odd-numbered years (the Philadelphia Eagles (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Philadelphia_Eagles) in 2005 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Super_Bowl_XXXIX)), and the AFC team in even-numbered years (the New England Patriots (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/New_England_Patriots) in 2004 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Super_Bowl_XXXVIII)). The home team is given the choice of either wearing their colored jerseys (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jersey_%28clothing%29) or their white ones; this started with Super Bowl XIII (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Super_Bowl_XIII). Prior to that, the home team always wore the dark jerseys. The Dallas Cowboys (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dallas_Cowboys) wore their rarely-used blue uniform tops in Super Bowl V (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Super_Bowl_V), and lost to the then-Baltimore Colts (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indianapolis_Colts), which has led to the widely-held belief that the Cowboys do not play well in their blue shirts. While most home teams in the Super Bowl choose to wear their colored jerseys, only the Cowboys in XIII (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Super_Bowl_XIII) and XXVII (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Super_Bowl_XXVII) and the Washington Redskins (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Washington_Redskins) in XVII (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Super_Bowl_XVII) have worn white as the home team.
