A little quick NFL roster trivia
How many of these players’ college teams can you name? No cheating!
QB Charlie Batch - Eastern Michigan Aaron Brooks - Virginia Rich Gannon - Delaware RB Ladell Betts - Iowa Larry Centers Priest Holmes - Texas WR Az Hakim - San Diego State Eric Moulds - Mississippi State Terrell Owens - UT-Chattanooga TE Anthony Becht - West Virginia Wesley Walls - Ole Miss OL Larry Allen - Sonoma State Matt Birk - Harvard Kevin Mawae - LSU John Tait - BYU DL Sam Adams - Texas A&M Dwight Freeney - Syracuse Mike Rucker - Nebraska LB Brian Urlacher - New Mexico London Fletcher - John Carroll DB Corey Chavous - Vandy Otis Smith - Mizzou K Morten Andersen - Michigan State |
Priest Holmes - Texas
Az Hakim - San Diego St. Lodon Fletcher - John Carrol Dwight Freeny - Syracuse |
It's obvious why I know the former Rams. I thought everyone knew that Priest lost his starting job at UT to Ricky.
|
I think Matt Birk was Harvard (wasn't there a United Way commercial that mentioned that? Maybe I am thinking of someone else)
|
Otis "my man" Smith - Missouri
Anthony Becht - West Virginia Kevin Mawae - LSU |
Ugh. I am shamed that I forgot Otis Smith went to Mizzou.
|
Charlie Batch - Eastern Michigan
Aaron Brooks - UVA Ladell Betts - Iowa Sam Adams - Texas A&M Brian Urlacher - New Mexico Corey Chauvous - Purdue? |
Urlacher - Arizona State (?)
|
Moulds -Mississipi State
|

Anyone remember who gave him that nickname?? ;) |
The only one I know is Larry Allen and I'm going to butcher it...Sonoma (not sure if it's Sonoma College or Sonoma State or whatever).
|
All correct so far, except Corey Chavous did not attend Purdue.
|
Must have been Berman - Otis Smith's nickname

dola
I'm surprised no one knows Morten Andersen. Guess I'm the only one old enough! :D |
When I saw it was player's colleges, I didn't think I was going to get a single one. Heck, I know the Cowboys better than I know any team in the NFL and I probably couldn't tell you where 1/2 - 3/4ths or more of them went to college. Pretty lucky for you to pick one of the few I knew. :)
|
I've added a few more names.
|
Mike Rucker is Nebraska
|
Tait went to Utah.
Chavous went to Vanderbilt or a Virginia school...hedging my bets. Owens and Centers both went to non-Div 1 schools. Can't remember which though. |
I'm pretty sure Tait was BYU.
|
I think Tait was BYU.
|
Chavous was Vandy. Wesley Walls - Ole Miss Larry Centers - Eastern Illinois?
|
Wasn't Morten Anderson from Virginia?
|
oh, that's right. Tait from BYU.
speaking of, did anyone read Krakaur's Under the Banner of Heaven? doesn't exactly give the Mormon religion a whole lot of props. |
Gannon went to Delaware.
|
Owens went to UT-Chattanooga, didn't he?
It was one of those Tennessee schools.... |

Yup that is right. That one was bugging me to no end. |
Quote:
Morten Andersen went to Michigan State. |
Quote:
Nope, my man Jim Harbaugh gave him that nickname. I miss Captain Comeback! ;) |
Anyone going to win the Larry Centers derby?
|
Stephen F. Austin
