Super Bowl XLIX at University of Phoenix Stadium, decides the National Football League (NFL) champion for the 2014 season, and is to be played between the American Football Conference (AFC) champion New England Patriots and the National Football Conference (NFC) champion Seattle Seahawks. The game is at the Arizona Cardinals’ University of Phoenix Stadium in Glendale Arizona.
For this year’s Super Bowl it is the second season in a row, but only the third time in 21 seasons, that the number one seed from each conference will meet in the NFL championship game.
Super Bowl XLIX will be the Seahawks’ second consecutive Super Bowl appearance. The Seahawks defeated the Denver Broncos 43–8 in Super Bowl XLVIII in 2014. This year the Denver Broncos lost to the Indianapolis Colts in the NFL Second Round Playoffs 24-13. The Colts then lost to the New England Patriots 45-7 in a game with controversy after an investigation about whether the Patriots deliberately cheated using deflated footballs. Nothing definitive has been determined regarding the controversy that has been overplayed in the media.
The New England Patriots will be returning for their eighth Super Bowl appearance. At their last Super Bowl appearance in 2012 they lost 21–17 to the New York Giants in Super Bowl XLVI.
