Here is this weeks trivia. I will give a list of 5 colleges that represent the alma mater of the Top 5 people that did something significant in the NFL. Example: If I say: Columbia, Yale, Georgetown, Yale, and Eureka, the answer would be the alma maters of the last 5 Presidents. The following shouldn't be that hard (but you get bonuses for naming the person associated with the schools involved):1. What does this list of alma maters represent:
Southern Mississippi Favre
Pitt Marino
Tennessee Manning
Georgia Tarkenton
Stanford Elway
All-time passing leaders by yardage
2. What does this list of alma maters represent:
Florida Smith
Jackson St. Payton
Oklahoma St. Sanders
Pitt Martin
Notre Dame Bettis
All-time rushing leaders by yards
Check marks on these. (It really wasn't all that tough, was it?)

Check. Notre Dame is Curly Lambeau. Chuck Noll didn't go to Pitt, he went to Dayton. It is Marty Schottenheimer that went to Pitt. Yes, Marty is one of the top 5 winningest coaches in NFL history.

Here is a hint on some of this trivia: several of the questions are related to the Browns only.
