This is more of an oddity than um, throwing shade at great college football programs.
Whether the Los Angeles Rams or Cincinnati Bengals win Super Bowl 56 on Sunday at SoFi Stadium, Georgia or LSU will have something to brag about.
This will be the first time either of the SEC schools has produced a starting quarterback to win the Super Bowl.
It feels almost implausible but it is true. The only LSU quarterback to start a Super Bowl was the late David Woodley, who was with the Miami Dolphins for their loss to Washington in Super Bowl 17.
At the time, Woodley was the youngest quarterback to start a Super Bowl, at 24 years and three months old.
The lone Georgia quarterback to start a Super Bowl made three appearances and was unable to lead the Minnesota Vikings to a victory.
Fran Tarkenton was the QB when the Purple People came up short in Super Bowls 8, 9, and 11. The Scrambling one is the only Dawg QB to start a Super Bowl game.
Of course, Matthew Stafford played college ball at Georgia before being selected first overall by the Detroit Lions in 2009.
Joe Burrow began his college career at Ohio State but found college glory following a transfer to LSU.
