Six former players from the Tennessee Volunteers, Georgia Bulldogs, and Miami Hurricanes have been named either to the original or replacement 2013 Pro Bowl rosters. The Texas Longhorns and Cal Golden Bears each have five alumni named, while Oklahoma, LSU and Wisconsin each got four. Of the 23 collegiate programs that have multiple Pro Bowl alumni, more than half of them are in either the SEC or ACC.

More surprising are the relatively low number of Pro Bowlers from some of college football’s most prestigious programs. Alabama, Notre Dame, Florida, USC, Stanford, Ohio State, Michigan, Virginia Tech, and Clemson each have only one Pro Bowler. Big XII champion Kansas State has none, as do Arkansas, Auburn, and Oregon State.
The SEC has the most Pro Bowlers as a conference, placing 26 on the Pro Bowl roster. The ACC came in second with 19. The Big Ten, Pac-12, and Big XII lagged far behind. The SEC benefited most from conference realignment, adding five Pro Bowlers through its acquisition of Texas A&M and Missouri. The Big Ten’s addition of Nebraska brought just two Pro Bowl players, while Colorado and Utah added just one for the Pac-12.
