Massachusetts: Matt Hasselback

Hasselback is one of the more underrated players of the 2000s. He was a three-time Pro Bowler throughout the decade.

In 2003, he led the Seahawks to the playoffs. He threw 26 touchdowns and totaled over 3,800 yards on the season. Paired with the amazing ground attack of Shaun Alexander and the Seattle offensive line, Hasselback made Seattle one of the best teams in the NFC.

He had successful stints as a short-term starter/ backup with the Titans and Colts to round out a long, successful 17 year career that included a Super Bowl appearance in the 2005 season.

Michigan: Drew Stanton

Michigan has had a ton of players become NFL talents, and only three of them have been quarterbacks. Two of them played for the Colts, those two being Stanton and Jim Sorgi. The third currently calls the plays in Dallas, and that would be Cooper Rush.

Stanton is the second quarterback on this list that played for the 2008 Lions, which says a lot about how the Lions found quarterbacks in the Matt Millen era. He has bounced around the NFL throughout his career, and is still going strong as the backup in Cleveland with the Browns. Plus, he actually has a winning record of 11-6 throughout his career.
