The 2015 Senior Bowl was an all-star college football exhibition game featured players from the 2014 NCAA Division I FBS football season, and prospects for the 2015 Draft of the professional National Football League (NFL). The game concluded the post-season that began on December 21, 2014. It was sponsored by Reese's Peanut Butter Cups and was officially known as the Reese's Senior Bowl.[1]

Ali Marpet of Hobart and William Smith Colleges, the first NCAA Division III player selected for the Senior Bowl, was named Sports Illustrated as the game's "biggest riser".[2][3]

The game was played on January 24, 2015, at 3:00 p.m. CST, at Ladd–Peebles Stadium in Mobile, Alabama, between "North" and "South" teams, with the North team winning the game 34–13. Coverage of the event was provided on the NFL Network.
