That isn't all of our draft picks FYI.


ETA:

Actually it might be. I was thinking about Mettenberger but he wasn't with us. Then it reminded me of our QB play that year and I spiraled into depression all over again.

That's insane. Can't click link, does it say if all those people played? Being that they are including the 2014 draft and the game was 2011, I would iamgine that not all of those guys even saw the field.

Great game. Sucked at the time to lose it, but since we earned a rematch and won it, I'm OK with it now.

What about undrafted players from that game currently in the league?

If I counted correctly, that's 66.67% were Defensive Players. Most of which are starting or rotational players for their respective NFL teams as well.
I understand 9-6 now. I personally like how people hate that game. I absolutely LOVED it and my team lost. Big time hits and defensive scheming like a fricking boss throughout that whole game!

wonder if there are any seniors this year that were freshman during that game that played and will be drafted after this year.

ETA: Rasco and Hilliard for LSU both played and could be added to this list. I'll see if any for Bama

ETAA: Bama has several seniors who may or may not have played in that game. Maybe one of ya'll can give us an idea if any of these guys are good enough to be drafted: Fowler, Jones, Shepherd, Ivory, Perry, Dickson, Vogler, Depriest, White, and Williams.

This list doesn't include the redshirt freshman from that game, right?

At least 15 of these players are still on NFL rosters.
Not sure about the other school.

Impressive but consider this...
The 2003 Fiesta Bowl had:
37 of of the 43 starters drafted,
20 of the 22 defensive starts drafted,
30 total defensive players from the 2-deep drafted and
58 of the 100 players played in the NFL
