    The players are picked based on their rankings by pro scouts as well as some NFL teams can specifically ask for certain guys to be included. You have to also understand that many times guys back out of the game at the last minute and have to be replaced. Also some positions like Quarterback are so important that they don’t care about where they are from. Especially if say 2 or 3 of them are expected to go high. Because if they stuck them on the same team then you wouldn’t get to see enough of any of them. Its like this every year though. Especially with west coast players. Sometimes you have no idea where they will end up.

    For years and years, the South team was every Alabama and Auburn senior starter plus most other prominent SEC players, filled out with other standouts in the southeast. The North was everyone else. As you might expect, the team drawn from 70+% of the country kicked the home team’s ass around 70% of the time. I have no idea when that changed since I moved away from Mobile 15 years ago, but I’m not surprised that they have evened up the teams and made it more competitive.

    Are we this football starved, that we’re watching… college all-star "exhibitions"?

    What next… the WVU Blue-Gold game?

    You might be interested in the documentary "Two Days In April" which provides some behind the scenes coverage of how players are selected for the Senior Bowl, as well as what players go through at the Senior Bowl itself. It’s a major pre-draft event. The film is available for instant viewing on Netflix.

    I’d forgotten Senior Bowl football game was today until I turned on my TV today to watch pro trampoline basketball, and discovered to my annoyance that it got preempted by the Senior Bowl game.

    All I know is that the Senior Bowl is a blast if you happen to be in Mobile. Nice way to get ready for Mardi Gras.

    I know. I see a South Florida player was listed for the North squad…

    Without looking at the rulebook, the only thing I can think of is that the squads are divided by conferences: SEC to the South, Big East to the North, that sort of thing.

    I believe it is based on relative sales of grits vs. cream of wheat in the Denny’s franchise nearest the selected player’s campus.
