    Summing up.....in 54 Super Bowls, Tigers have earned 44 rings, representing 24 Super Bowl Champions. Kevin Faulk has the most with 3 rings, while Leonard Marshall, Corey Webster, Anthony McFarland, Rohan Davey, Jarvis Green, Randall Gay and Spencer Ware each have 2. McFarland, Gay and Ware each earned their 2 rings with 2 different teams. No matter who wins this year's game, 3 more Tigers will earn rings, with 2 (Tyrann Mathieu and Darrell Williams) potentially earning their 2nd.

    16 Super Bowls have featured at least one LSU player on each team. This year's game will tie Super Bowl 39 for LSU's best representation, with 6 total players. In Super Bowl 39, all six played (and won rings) for the Patriots.

    The 14 year period from Super Bowls 7 through 20 was LSU's longest drought without a ring, while the Super Bowl era has had 2 separate 4-year periods with no LSU players in the game at all.

    Glad to do it, you know I love the history research. (check out today's TDIH, good one!) Big help was finding a site that lists every team's roster with colleges back to about 1960.

    Former LSU athlete Cyril Grayson is a member of the Bucs as well. He's on IR and ran track at LSU after playing at Rummel in high school.

    Yes, but the source I used only listed active roster players.
