The Senior Bowl is one of the most popular college football games played in the United States. This bowl is different from the other bowl games in college football, as it does not lead to the crowning of a national champion. Rather, the Senior Bowl game showcases the best NFL Draft prospects who have completed their college football career. Located in Mobile, Alabama, United States, this bowl game first started in 1950 and has been played every year since then.

The best NFL Draft prospects for the Senior Bowl game are divided into two teams - the National Team and the American Team. These two teams face off against each other to win the Bowl game. Notably, the Senior Bowl games have previously been played in Gator Bowl Stadium and Ladd-Peebles Stadium. However, they have since moved on to a new home stadium.
