Well, it's that time of year again - the big game, commercials, and the two-hour-long halftime entertainment

The culmination of a long National Football League season - 17 games in all, and of course, that's not including the three pre-season games, and THEN the post season begins ( if your favorite team makes it ) - think about way back on July 31st of last year, when the Los Angeles Chargers met the Detroit Lions - The Hall of Fame game. We are now down to just two teams left, with this weekend off for all the hype to kick in. The 60th Super Bowl will kick off on Sunday, February 8th, in Santa Clara, California - The New England Patriots vs the Seattle Seahawks. Here is a question that came to mind: "How many former North Dakota State Bison players are in the big game?"

If your answer is "2" YOU are correct, and they play for the same team

According to sportssurge.alibaba.com/ "The National Football League (NFL) consists of 32 teams, each operating under strict roster regulations set by the collective bargaining agreement (CBA). The standard active roster limit is 53 players per team, allowing for a total of 1,696 players across the league when all rosters are full." The Seattle Seahawks have 2 former North Dakota State Bison players on their team. A rookie by the name of Grey Zabel, who plays guard, and a 2-year veteran, Jalen Sundell. -  the Seahawks center. So here in Bismarck and Mandan, who do you think will win?
