Scott Thomas Dreisbach Jr.[1] (born December 16, 1975) is a former American football quarterback.
Originally from Mishawaka, Indiana, Dreisbach played college football as a quarterback for the University of Michigan from 1995 to 1998. He began the 1995 and 1996 seasons as Michigan's starting quarterback, but had both seasons cut short by injury. In 15 games as a starter, Dreisbach led the Wolverines to a 12–3 record and completed 205 of 375 passes for 2,875 yards and 15 touchdowns. He is best remembered leading Michigan to last-second, come-from-behind victory in his first game as a Wolverine, the 1995 Pigskin Classic.
Dreisbach played professional football for the Oakland Raiders from 1999 to 2000, but he was injured prior to the start of the regular season each year. He was the starting quarterback for the Scottish Claymores during the 2002 NFL Europe season and later played five seasons in the Arena Football League (AFL) for the Los Angeles Avengers (2003), Dallas Desperados (2004), Austin Wranglers (2005), Georgia Force (2006) and Columbus Destroyers (2007).
