As you know by now, Rutgers football has the most former players that will be on the field for Super Bowl LI, other than Alabama. The game will air at 6:30 p.m. EST on Fox.
When the Atlanta Falcons have the ball and the New England Patriots are on defense, all four former active players will be involved in the action. Here is our game preview and what to watch for when Mo Sanu of the Falcons is lined up across from Logan Ryan, his former roommate at Rutgers, as well as Devin McCourty and Duron Harmon in the secondary of the Patriots.
We also profiled all former Rutgers football players who have been in Super Bowls over the years. There is quite a bit of history there.
Join us in the comment section during the game to talk shop on how the Scarlet Knights are lighting up the field. I’ll set the over/under how many times Rutgers is mentioned in this game at 11, with the number of complaints over people on twitter at 1,100. It should be a blast for every Rutgers fan watching the best offense and best defense in football representing the school and program we all love!
Fox Sports did a profile with the Patriots trio from Rutgers in their pregame show, which is here:
