The first Shrine Bowl was played in 1925, and on Thursday, February 3, the 97th game is set to kick off. This year’s game will be played in Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas, Nevada at 8 p.m. EST. (6 p.m. local time.)
This game has a major selling point for the players that some of the other all-star games don’t have. These guys are going to have at least some input on the draft process and who to bring in as an undrafted free agent.
Most of the coaches participating in this game are current NFL assistants, with Baltimore Ravens defensive backs coach D’Anton Lynn tabbed head coach for the East team and Indianapolis Colts offensive coordinator Marcus Brady for the West.
