Ready for this weeks Trivia? We did this earlier in the year with QBs but we are doing it again with RBs. Can you name every starting RB in the NFL based soley on the schools of where they went. The starter was determined by checking each team's depth chart on 10/12/09 (Bonus point for naming the player in the picture). I will post the answer in the comments on Monday.

ReplyDeleteGood call on Frank Gore! I was wondering why both McGahee and Ray Rice were on the list.
Who is the Texas Tech starter?! That one is still puzzling me. Might have to wikipedia...
I count 32 teams. But from your lists, you are missing anohter Miami, Southern Illinois, Minnesota, and Vilanova
ReplyDeleteSouthern Illinois is an easy Brandon Jacobs, Villanova Westbrook, Minnesota Marion The Barbarian, Miami Gore/McGahee/Portis. Those were the main ones I noticed missing.
