The Southland Bowling League (SBL) was a National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) bowling-only conference.

Following the inaugural SBL Championship, four league teams (Arkansas State, Sam Houston State, Stephen F. Austin, and Vanderbilt) received at-large bids to the 2015 NCAA Championships, filling half of the eight available spots.

Youngstown State replaced Monmouth, who accepted an invitation to join the MEAC.
