What team won the Super Bowl and also drafted the Heisman winner in the following draft? So no one gets confused on the question, here is an example of how it might of happened last year, Pittsburgh won the last Super Bowl and drafted Reggie Bush.

Give Super Bowl team and the player's name that was drafted.

At one point in August 1971, the Pittsburgh Pirates became the first professional team to field nine players who were either black or Latino. Coincidentally, this was the same year that they won the World Series.
