News 12 New Jersey?s Bryan DeNovellis reports that when the city of Indianapolis found out it was hosting the 2012 Super Bowl, many Colts fans thought they would see Manning at the championship game.
Manning will play in the Super Bowl, although it will be Eli, not Peyton Manning, trying to help the Giants win their fourth Vince Lombardi Trophy.
The rematch of Super Bowl XLII will take place in Indianapolis in two weeks on Feb. 5.
