CAMBRIDGE — The starting quarterback is a future rocket scientist — as in, really, a rocket scientist. Seventeen of the 81 players were high school valedictorians. The coach readily admits that he guides charges with IQs above his own, but takes solace in knowing he can still teach them a thing or two about solving the intricacies of 100-yard equations.

It is one of the most unconventional and perhaps improbable championship football teams that New England has known. The MIT Engineers, riding a perfect 9-0 season, on Saturday play in their first postseason game in school history.

Are there any examples of their IQs being used on the field? Like elaborate play calling or something? Do they just use telekinesis? Mutant Institute of Technology?

I bet it shows in their discipline. Like, I bet they have few penalties.

Probably don't get many nonsense 15 yard personal fouls.

First thought was Revenge of the Nerds, when they designed the javelin to fully utilize Lamar's limp-wristed throwing motion. Curious to see team, I youtubed & one of the top posts was a Revenge of the Nerds highlight comp.

Then I clicked the link & it said my phone was too stupid to play vid.
