The Super Bowl is all that’s left on the football calendar. For the majority of the NFL world, attention has turned to the 2023 NFL Draft and the milestones leading up to those three nights. One of those key events will take place this week, as many of college football’s top senior prospects are in Mobile, Alabama for the Senior Bowl. Training will take place from Tuesday to Thursday before Saturday’s showdown.
Before we take a look at the quarterbacks, top prospects and sleepers to watch, here’s how you can watch this year’s game.

Top Quarterback Prospects
Mobile’s quarterback class lacks its usual star power. For five years in a row, an eventual first-round pick for the job — Kenny Pickett being the latest — has taken part in the festivities. from Kentucky Will Levis, a top-10 overall selection, was invited to the game but declined to focus on recovering from the season and preparing for the NFL Scouting Combine. Tennessee’s Hendon Hooker is also struggling with an injury sustained during the season.
Without these players, there is an opportunity for others to differentiate themselves. Houston’s Clayton Tune and TCU’s Max Duggan probably have the best chance of improving their stock. Fresno State’s Jake Haener is a personal favorite because of his view of the field and his toughness. He may not be considered a long-term starter, but it wouldn’t be a surprise if he stayed in the league for a long time.
Division II Shepherd University will be represented not only by quarterback Tyson Bagent, but also by their offensive tackle – Joey Fisher. BYU’s Jaren Hall and Louisville’s Malik Cunningham are also in attendance.
Top non-quarterback prospects
Florida Interior Offensive Lineman O’Cyrus Torrence is the highest-rated prospect, according to CBSSports.com’s Prospect Rankings. He is the highest ranked interior offensive lineman and the 15th overall prospect.
BYU offensive tackle Blake Freeland (#30 overall), Syracuse offensive tackle Matthew Bergeron (#31 overall) and Ohio State offensive tackle Dawand Jones (#34 overall) are all closely grouped as second highest rated. The Bowl’s senior executive director Jim Nagy revealed that Jones is the longest player to ever measure at the event with a wingspan of 89 1/2 inches.
Bowling Green defensive lineman Isaiah Foskey and Notre Dame Edge’s Andre Carter II are also ranked among the top 50 prospects.
Sleepers to watch
The term “sleeper” can take on several meanings. For example, it could be a low school player who has yet to be featured on the national stage. It can also be a player who has been limited by an injury or situation during his career.
Princeton wide receiver Andrei Iosivas is going to make a name for himself ahead of the 2023 NFL Draft. He has great size, speed and production. South Alabama cornerback Darrell Luter Jr. will play one last game at his college stadium. Luter has five interceptions over the past two seasons.
Clemson tight end Davis Allen has been on the radar for a few years, but his use hasn’t matched that of a top prospect. Georgia Tech defensive lineman Keion White and Oregon point rusher DJ Johnson have enticing heights and athletic features, but are still going strong.
