SUPER BOWL SPARTANS: I & II

As Super Bowl XLVII approaches, here is a look back at the Super Spartans who have won the Super Bowl. 

1964 Philadelphia #71
 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.

 Adderley came to East Lansing from Philadelphia and starred for Duffy Daugherty in the 1959 and 1960 seasons.
