the senior bowl, whose presenting sponsor was a local grocery chain, concluded the college football season at ladd–peebles stadium in mobile, alabama, on january 28, 2006. the game, played in a north-versus-south format reminiscent of the defunct blue-gray classic and governed by nfl rules and officials in order best to approximate how prospective professionals would play in nfl situations, saw the south team lose an early lead and, following three turnovers, ultimately fall, 31–14. the north team drove the length of the field on its first possession, but vanderbilt quarterback jay cutler, who completed just 6 of 19 passes on the day for only 69 yards, threw an interception to texas cornerback cedric griffin. the south capitalized on the turnover, and just 8:24 into the game, alabama quarterback brodie croyle, who was his team's leading passer, completing 6 of 11 passes for 77 yards, found miami (florida) wide receiver sinorice moss for a 30-yard touchdown; moss would finish the day as the south's leading receiver, having caught three passes for 45 yards, and as the team's second-leading rusher, carrying just once but for 27 yards. moss, for his efforts, which also included a fumble recovery, was named the game's overall most valuable player. the north answered just four-and-a-half minutes later, as clemson quarterback charlie whitehurst, who would be named his team's offensive mvp after finishing the day having completed 7 of 9 passes for 90 yards, connected with colorado tight end joe klopfenstein from 15 yards for a touchdown; klopfenstein's three catches and 39 receiving yards on the day would place him second among all north receivers. the teams exchanged possessions and, early in the second quarter, the south defense forced a punt from the north; the ball was bobbled, though, and nebraska safety daniel bullocks fell on the ball in the end zone for a touchdown, putting his team up 14–7; bullocks later recovered another muffed punt. powered by the rushing of washington state running back jerome harrison, who gained 51 yards on 11 carries for the game, the north team drove to the south 11-yard line with just under four minutes remaining in the first half before the south defense tightened and forced a field goal try; wyoming kicker deric yaussi was successful from 28 yards, giving his north team a 17–7 halftime lead. the north team controlled the ball for much of the third quarter, contributing to their 12:34 advantage in time-of-possession over the game, and several running backs accumulated key yards for the squad. oregon's terrence whitehead (six carries for 32 yards), arizona's mike bell (five for 20), colorado's lawrence vickers (four for 19), and virginia tech's cedric humes (five for 19) helped the north team total 200 yards rushing on the day, and with 4:49 remaining in the quarter, humes scored on a one-yard rush to put the north up 17 points. directing the north in the third quarter was penn state dual-threat quarterback michael robinson, who completed only one pass in the game but ran nine times for 63 yards, outgaining each of the north's running backs. the north defense continued to stymie the south offense for much of the second half, holding georgia quarterback d.j. shockley and alabama-birmingham quarterback darrell hackney to a combined 5-for-13 passing for just 55 yards, sacking the two twice, and forcing a shockley interception. nevertheless, thanks to the play of memphis running back deangelo williams, who was named the south's offensive mvp, carrying thrice for 31 yards and catching two passes for 28 more, the south assembled a successful drive late in the third quarter, and, just 44 seconds into the fourth quarter, hackney completed a 17-yard scoring pass to auburn wide receiver devin aromashodu, cutting the south's deficit to 10. another successful defensive stand by the south was negated when bullocks recovered his second muffed punt of the day, setting up cutler's seven-yard touchdown toss to arizona state wide receiver derek hagan, who caught three passes for 25 yards on the day; yaussi's successful extra point attempt—the seventh point he would score on the day—returned the north advantage to 17, where it would stay. the south's offensive efforts were hampered by the team's inability to rush the ball consistently; mississippi state running back jerrious norwood, louisiana state running back joseph addai, and south florida running back andre hall gained just 11 yards over their seven carries. providing receiving help for the south were california-los angeles tight end dominique byrd, who led all receivers with four catches for 67 yards, and michigan wide receiver jason avant, who added two catches for 23 yards; for the north, auburn wide receiver ben obomanu, north carolina state tight end t.j. williams, and new mexico wide receiver hank bassett each added a reception and at least 13 yards. for his role in holding the south to 179 total yards, penn state defensive end tamba hali, who recorded two sacks, was named the defensive mvp for the north; for the south, the defensive mvp was georgia tech linebacker gerris wilkinson, who recorded a sack and four tackles. the victorious north squad was coached by the staff of the tennessee titans, led by jeff fisher, while the south team was coached by the san francisco 49ers' staff, headed by mike nolan.
