Silver and Black are repped on both teams
The college football season will end Monday night when the The Notre Dame Fighting Irish will play the Ohio State Buckeyes in Atlanta. Kickoff is set for 4:30 p.m. PT
The Las Vegas Raiders’ roster is represented by two players form both schools. While of course, the Raiders’ season is over, the results of Monday night’s game will be a source of bravado and needling when the team comes back to the locker room in April for the offseason conditioning program.
All four of the Raiders’ players from these two schools are recent alumni, so they are closely connected to the two rosters playing in Atlanta in this game
The former Notre Dame players on the Raiders’ roster are tight end Michael Mayer, who just completed his second season and safety Thomas Harper, who just ended his rookie campaign.
The former Ohio State players on the Raiders’ roster are tackle Thayer Munford, who just completed his third NFL season and linebacker Tommy Eichenberg, who just ended his rookie season in Las Vegas.
We shall see which pair of young Raiders will have bragging rights this year.
