Published: Jan 23, 2012 at 09:04 AM

One other thing will be the same when the New England Patriots and New York Giants meet in a rematch of Super Bowl XLII: the uniform colors.

The Patriots chose their home blue uniforms, meaning the Giants will wear their road white jerseys in Super Bowl XLVI on Feb. 5 in Indianapolis.

The Patriots are the home team and announced their decision Monday via Twitter. New England also wore its blue uniforms for Super Bowls XXXVI and XXXVIII, both of which it won, but lost Super Bowl XLII to the Giants, 17-14.
