Trivia Questions and Answers

You all made short order of yesterday's quiz. Today's may prove to be harder. What it will also prove is that for a long long period of time, Running Backs were the cream of the crop when it came to drafting positions in Round 1 ...rather than QB. Here it is, and is similar to yesterday's question:

Since the Common Draft began in 1966......there have been 11 schools who have had FIVE (5) or more of their Running Backs taken in the first round of the draft.

Name these 11 schools.

Just a strinin' ya!?

But I am a little surprised about Syracuse and SMU

Plus we all know that JFF was really a RB disguised as a QB, so that makes 6.
