Super Bowl Round Preview: Let’s Go Giants!

“The New England Patriots stand 60 minutes from the first 19-0 season in NFL history, with the New York Giants, their Super Bowl XLII counterpart, seeking to ruin that run at perfection with a monumental upset on Sunday.

“University of Phoenix Stadium in Glendale, AZ will be the site of the conflict, which takes place roughly five weeks after the Patriots and Giants engaged in a memorable affair at the Meadowlands in Week 17 of the regular season.

“New York took New England to the wire in that contest, building a double-digit second-half lead before falling, 38-35. The result made the Patriots the first team to finish 16-0 since the NFL schedule was expanded in 1978, and Bill Belichick’s squad also became the first to achieve perfection in a regular campaign since the 1972 Miami Dolphins went 14-0 en route to a Super Bowl title.

TheStateOf . . . The Super Bowl. Big J is going with the Giants in overtime. I (J) might hate the Patriots more than any other sports franchise, mostly because of that b.s. “tuck” game against the Raiders.
