As Super Bowl XLVII approaches, here is a look back at the Super Spartans who have won the Super Bowl.
Herb Adderley won Super Bowl I & II as a member of the Green Bay Packers, on his way to a NFL
Hall of Fame career. He appeared in four of the first six Super Bowls.
"Adderley was a major factor in the Packers' Super Bowl II win over the
Oakland Raiders, intercepting a pass by Raiders quarterback Daryle Lamonica in the fourth quarter and returning it 60 yards for a touchdown to put the game away.This was the first Super Bowl touchdown on an intercepted pass."
Drafted in the first round in 1961 as a half back, Vince Lomardi moved Adderley to defense as an emergency replacement to cornerback Hank Gremminger.
