Did you know that every Division of college football was represented in the Chiefs/Niners Super Bowl?
You know we are huge supporters of small schoolers at NFL Draft Diamonds, and I wanted to share a pretty cool stat with our readers. Did you know that Division 1, Division 1AA (FCS), Division 2, and Division 3 were all represented in the Super Bowl between the Chiefs and the Niners?
Here are all the FCS schools represented:
| COLLEGE | CONFERENCE |
|---|---|
| Central Arkansas | SLC |
| Harvard | Ivy |
| Penn | Ivy |
| SF Austin | SLC/WAC |
| South Carolina State | MEAC |
| South Dakota | MVC |
Here are all the DII schools represented:
| COLLEGE | CONFERENCE |
|---|---|
| Fayetteville State | CIAA |
| Missouri S&T | GLVC |
Here is the DIII school represented:
| COLLEGE | CONFERENCE |
|---|---|
| St. John’s (Minn.) | MIAC |
Here are the players who participated from those schools, Ben Bartch, Josh Williams, Tershawn Wharton, Jack Cochrane, Javon Hargrave, B.J. Thompson, Justin Watson, Kyle Juszczyk, and George Odum.
I thought it was a pretty amazing stat and wanted to share it with our readers. We interviewed almost all those guys coming out of school, so that is pretty cool to see.
