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.

1. Top 5 QB's in Passing Yards

Southern Mississippi - Brett Favre

Pitt - Dan Marino

Tennessee - Peyton Manning

Georgia - don't know

Stanford - don't know

I thought one of the top 5 was Warren Moon, but I didn't think he went to Georgia or Stanford

None of the other lists jumped out at me
