Super Bowl LI: Rutgers Alums Historical Impact on the Big Game

With the entire football universe now aware that no college has more former players than Rutgers in the “Big Game” let’s count down the past games in which were influenced most by former Scarlet Knight players. NJ.com listed the “best players”, but this is a list of game by game influence.

17. Super Bowl XXII: Shout out to Tony Sagnella? Bill Hill, Joe Burke, and Lee Getz were also a replacement players in 1987 during the strike, but Sangella played for the eventual champion Washington Redskins. He did not play in the big game and I’m not sure if any of the “scabs” got rings.
