Two number one seeds are going to battle in Super Bowl XLVIII in the Meadowlands on Feb. 2.

Will Denver Broncos cornerback Champ Bailey live up to his given name? Can Broncos quarterback Peyton Manning become the first signal caller to win a championship with different teams? Or will the NFL's newest villains, the Seattle Seahawks, rely on their brash style of play to rattle the Mile High team?

There are a lot of storylines in this matchup. The fact that each team is the best in its respective conference (NFC for Seattle; AFC for Denver) means truly the best matchup has been made. The Broncos also boast the best offense. The Seahawks counter with the best D. Adding to the fireworks of seeing two number one seeds duke it out is the fact that they are both relatively healthy. After four preseason and 18 regular season and playoff games, that is no small feat. Could we see younger players be the difference-makers in this contest? Perhaps we'll see veterans like Bailey rely on all their game day experience to keep up with the younger players.

Both teams will be touching down in Newark, N.J. later today. The Broncos will land at Newark International Airport first at approximately 3:30 p.m. The Seahawks will swoop in at 7 p.m. tonight. The long break between Championship Sunday and the Super Bowl is key to both teams. The extra few days, when compared to playoff or Regular season contests, allows the two squads the luxury of arriving for the big game a week ahead of time. The week in New Jersey, with media events in New York City, will allow the Broncos and Seahawks time to adjust to the chilly, snowy NY Metro-area weather. Normally Super Bowls are played in warmer climates, like Florida's Orange Bowl. However, the state-of-the-art MetLife Stadium in the Meadowlands, as well as the NY/NJ media presence, was too hard for NFL brass to pass up.

How will both teams fare in these less-than-ideal playing conditions? Expect Denver's Knowshon Moreno and Seattle's Marshawn Lynch to get a lot of carries. Both running backs are absolutely unstoppable once they put their head down and plow through opponents. Moreno has nearly 1,800 yards on the ground this year (including the playoffs) and has found the end zone 14 times. Lynch has similar stats as Moreno. He's rushed for over 1,500 yards and scored 15 times. He also boasts the greatest run in postseason history.

Older fans will appreciate the matchup of these two former AFC West rivals. 

The big game airs Feb. 2 at 6:30 p.m. on FOX.
