College football all-star game
College football bowl game
The Magnolia Gridiron All-Star Classic was an annual post-season college football all-star game held in December 2005 and 2006. The game was organized by Darry Alton , who previously helped found the Las Vegas All-American Classic , in view of the discontinuation of the Blue–Gray Football Classic and the Gridiron Classic , in order to provide players from lesser-known and lesser-televised schools with a chance to impress NFL scouts.
The game was held at Mississippi Veterans Memorial Stadium in Jackson, Mississippi . It matched a team of senior players from Division I-A schools not participating in bowl games , against seniors from Division I-AA , Division II , and Division III schools; both teams also included some NAIA players.[ 1] NFL and CFL scouts.[ 2] [ 3]
