Has a team ever won the Super Bowl with a QB younger than the college natty champ QB?

Looks like there are 3 starting QBs in the playoffs that are all younger than Stetson.

Just curious.

Roethlisberger was the youngest QB to win the superbowl, at 23. But his birthday is March 2nd, so he was nearly 24. Vince young won the championship that year and was two months older.

Edit: Vince was a year younger, so to answer your question, yes it would be a first

He also at the time posted the worst QB rating ever by a QB in the Super Bowl. He was 9 for 21, 123 yards, with 1TD/2INT, for a 22.6 rating.
