The
42 Stops to Super Bowl XLII is a series that will feature stories, stats and interesting trivia that you can use to act smart as you prepare for Super Bowl XLII.

This will be sixth time the Super Bowl has been played in February. The AFC has won the previous five games:

  • Super Bowl XXXVI: Patriots beat Rams on February 3, 2002
  • Super Bowl XXXVIII: Patriots beat Panthers on February 1, 2004
  • Super Bowl XXXIX: Patriots beat Eagles on February 6, 2005
  • Super Bowl XL: Steelers beat Seahawks on February 5, 2006
  • Super Bowl XLI: Colts beat Bears on February 4, 2007

Obviously, Super Bowl XLII will be played this Sunday, February 3, 2008.

This will also be just the second Super Bowl to be played under a retractable roof. The Patriots beat the Panthers in Houston's Reliant Stadium back in Super Bowl XXXVIII.
