Following the NFL Divisional Playoffs this weekend, there are four Bulldogs still seeking a berth in the Super Bowl. And since three are on the two teams advancing to the AFC Championship Game, Georgia will have at least one player in the Super Bowl for an SEC-leading 17th consecutive year. During the previous 16 years, 29 different Bulldogs have advanced to the Super Bowl.
