3 NFL running backs?

I'm not super up on the NFL. I watch sporadically. Watching Abdullah carry the ball for Lions right now, watched a quick highlight of Cincinnati who has Rex Burkhead and I think Helu is with the Redskins. Does NU have any other RB's in the league? Can any other college claim 3 or more backs on NFL rosters?

 
Alabama has 3 playing RB: Mark Ingram, Eddie Lacy and T.J. Yeldon. Another former Alabama RB is playing FB for the Titans. Since my wife is an UA alum and rabid fan, I keep up with them a bit. I don't know about any other schools, though.

EDIT: TvL beat me to it while I was typing, but I'll leave this anyway. I didn't include Trent Richardson since he got cut in the preseason.

Yep. I was just looking into it a bit and came back to post this.

According to ESPN, LSU has 5, Cal & FSU have 4 each, and Alabama, Auburn, Miami, Nebraska, Notre Dame, Ohio State, Oklahoma, Oregon, Stanford and USC each have 3.

 
Next year should make it 4 if you include fullbacks
