The de facto MVP of the NFC Championship Game, former Nittany Lion Jay Alford, once again was the hero, this time on the biggest stage of all, the Super Bowl. 
Former Penn State DT Jay Alford was the hero last night, laying down a beautiful game winning long snap in overtime to seal the deal against the Packers. With his hands numb from three and a half sub-zero hours of football, Alford was called on by his team and came through like the champion he is. This has confirmed previous claims by NFL experts that he is the greatest third round pick since the merger.
Jay Alford and the New York Giants will face off against Tom Brady and the New England Patriots in Super Bowl XLII.
