Six Tide players accept Senior Bowl invites

Linebacker Courtney Upshaw, center William Vlachos, wide receiver Marquis Maze, cornerback DeQuan Menzie, safety Mark Barron, and nose guard Josh Chapman have each accepted invitations to the 2012 Senior Bowl in Mobile.

Even though six former Crimson Tide players have accepted an invite, two players are questionable, and one will not participate.

Nose guard Josh Chapman will miss the game due to an upcoming knee procedure, while Marquis Maze (hamstring) and Mark Barron (ribs) are considered questionable.

The 2012 Senior Bowl will be held Jan. 28 at Ladd-Peebles Stadium.
