The 2011 NFL Playoffs Divisional Round matchups have been set, and the schedules have been released. Although the San Francisco 49ers and Oakland Raiders are both sitting at home, there are plenty of California Golden Bears and Stanford Cardinal alums that are still playing today. Well, I'm being generous to the Cardinal. They have two alums still playing, the Golden Bears have eight.
Schedule after the jump!
