And the Mustangs on the team are front and center in that success. It’s so much fun seeing Zach Line play regularly.

And now there are 6. Sterling Moore has been re-signed to the roster.

I assume this isn't a record for guys from one school on the same NFL team, but i sure can't think of a team with more.
Anyone know of a team that had more?
