Good at producing pros, bad at winning games: Illinois #1

A huge number of NFL starters hail from traditional powers like Alabama, Georgia and Southern California. But several schools have mysteriously, and steadily, produced a gaggle of pros despite struggling on the field themselves.

No school exemplifies this more than Illinois. There are 11 former Fighting Illini currently starting in the NFL, yet the school has averaged 4.1 wins a season for the past 10 years.
