Wasn't sure where to put this...
Sporting News has compiled a ranked listing of those college programs producing the most Super Bowl winners. I believe, based on the note below, that this is the total number of players, not total number of rings.
I'm not sure what criteria they used to list a "notable" winner, but I was surprised to see Joe Theisman not listed for ND. Same with Matt Millen - who won four times. I'm sure there are other notables that could have been included.
(Note: Data, compiled from Pro Football Reference, does not reflect multiple rings won by individual players or inactive players at the time a team won the Super Bowl).
