Only Good Thing About Giants Win


Rutgers University is very proud of Shaun O'Hara LC'99, the fifth Scarlet Knight to earn a Super Bowl ring. Shaun is an alumnus of whom we can truly be proud, both on and off the playing field. Rutgers is thrilled to call him one of our own!

New York Giants fans everywhere are celebrating the biggest upset in Super Bowl history, the 17-14 victory over the previously unbeaten New England Patriots. Virtually everyone's underdogs shocked the sporting world because they believed in themselves when very few wanted to give them a chance.

No one epitomizes the Giants and the road they traveled in the 2007 season more than Shaun, their outstanding starting center. With hard work and determination, Shaun went from being a walk-on prospect at Rutgers to become an All-BIG EAST Conference lineman and captain of the Scarlet Knights football team. He then earned a place in the NFL as an undrafted free agent, and today is celebrating as a team captain and leader of the offensive line for the Super Bowl champion Giants.

That's all well and good, but two of the key receptions in the game came from Syracuse's own David Tyree.

A 6th round draft pick who paid his dues as a special teams player -- because he was never going to make the NFL as a wide receiver.
