The game features two of the top quarterbacks in the game, Eli Manning for New York and Tom Brady for New England.
The game marks the seventh appearance for the Patriots in the Super Bowl and fifth for the Giants.
The Giants had a walkthrough practice scheduled yesterday. The Pats had their walkthrough Friday and took a team picture at the game site yesterday. Rob Gronkowski walked without a limp as the Patriots gathered for photographs. The Pats star tight end is recovering from a high ankle sprain suffered two weeks ago.
The Patriots may play Ochocinco. He became active since the release of Tiquan Underwood less than 24 hours before the game. Ochocinco had a career-low 15 catches in his first season with the Patriots and was inactive for the AFC championship game against the Baltimore Ravens two weeks ago. He's never played in the Super Bowl.
In another move Saturday, the Patriots signed defensive end Alex Silvestro from their practice squad.
Kickoff is 4:30 p.m. (Mountain time).
