Oklahoma State quarterback Brandon Weeden, safety Markelle Martin and offensive tackle Levy Adcock are members of the South squad in the Senior Bowl, set for Jan. 28 in Mobile, Ala. The 3 p.m. all-star showcase is televised by the NFL Network, and so are the practice sessions that precede the game.

The South and North teams are coached by NFL coaches, and, according to the Senior Bowl website, “practices are also attended by over 800 general managers, head coaches, assistant coaches, scouts and other front-office personnel from the 32 National Football League teams.”
