==Game format==
For most editions of the Senior Bowl, players have been rostered into North and South teams. In 1991, team names were changed to [[American Football Conference|AFC]] and [[National Football Conference|NFC]],<ref>{{cite news |url=https://www.newspapers.com/clip/62994337/louisvilles-nagle-to-play-in-senior/ |title=Louisville's Nagle to play in Senior |agency=[[Associated Press|AP]] |newspaper=[[The Anniston Star]] |location=[[Anniston, Alabama]] |page=4B |date=January 3, 1991 |access-date=November 11, 2020 |via=newspapers.com}}</ref> to distinguish where their coaching staffs were from and to stress the professional nature of the game. This was somewhat confusing, as the Senior Bowl is played early in
The two teams are coached by coaching staffs that are selected from two NFL teams. In recent years, the coaching staffs have come from teams who finished near the bottom of the league standings, but whose coaches were not subsequently terminated. Beginning with the 2022 edition, head coaches serve in more of an advisory capacity while promoting select assistants into leadership roles on the staff.<ref>{{cite web |title=Detroit Lions and New York Jets Named Coaching Staffs for 2022 Reese's Senior Bowl |url=https://www.seniorbowl.com/detroit-lions-and-new-york-jets-named-coaching-staffs-for-2022-reeses-senior-bowl/ |website=seniorbowl.com |publisher=Reese's Senior Bowl}}</ref>
Organizers stipulate a number of specific rules for the game, some of which are intended to reduce the chance of injury (e.g. "All blocks below the waist are prohibited"), and others that simplify what the teams need to practice and prepare for (e.g. "Only four rushers allowed, no 5-man pressures or blitzes from secondary permitted").<ref>{{cite web |url=https://www.seniorbowl.com/the-game/game-rules/ |title=Game Rules |website=seniorbowl.com |access-date=December 29, 2019}}</ref> The game is also the players' first time competing under the slightly different professional rules (e.g. receivers must have both feet inbounds for a legal catch vs. just one foot inbounds in college football). The week-long practice that precedes the game is attended by key NFL personnel (including [[coach (sport)|coaches]], [[general manager]]s and [[scout (sport)|scouts]]), who oversee the players as possible prospects for professional football. Athletes sometimes decline invitations to participate in the Senior Bowl, opting instead to prepare for the [[NFL scouting combine]] or their college's [[pro day]].<ref>{{cite news|last=Brugler|first=Dane|title=2015 NFL Draft: UCLA QB Brett Hundley declines Senior Bowl|date=January 14, 2015|work=CBSSports.com|url=http://www.cbssports.com/nfl/draft/nfl-draft-scout/24962255/nfl-draft-ucla-qb-brett-hundley-declines-senior-bowl-invitation|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150129131854/http://www.cbssports.com/nfl/draft/nfl-draft-scout/24962255/nfl-draft-ucla-qb-brett-hundley-declines-senior-bowl-invitation|archive-date=January 29, 2015|url-status=live}}</ref>
