13. Seth Meyers – Northwestern

Seth Meyers grew up on the east coast in New Hampshire but he was born in Evanston, Illinois where the Big Ten program is located.

The Saturday Night Live alum and host of Late Night with Seth Meyers on NBC returned to Evanston to attend college at Northwestern where he got to see his Wildcats make an incredibly rare trip to the Rose Bowl in 1995.

Myers should get bonus points for being so publicly proud of his alma mater because Northwestern hasn’t always had so much to cheer about. Kudos for sticking with the program, Seth!

Meyers narrowly edged out another Northwestern alum, Michael Wilbon. The longtime writer for The Washington Post who is now more synonymous with ESPN after more than a decade as the co-host on Pardon the Interruption, Wilbon frequently wears purple to show off his Wildcat pride and is as vocal as anyone when it comes to repping Northwestern on the biggest sports network in the world.
