Alabama's final home game of the season will be played against Charleston Southern on Saturday, and the senior class will be recognized on the field prior to the game. 

Among those players suiting up for the final time is H-back Michael Nysewander. The Hoover native began his career as a walk-on and has worked his way into special teams and offensive role on the second-ranked Crimson Tide.

Nicknamed 'Highway 46' for his path-clearing blocking style and jersey number, Nysewander has earned respect from his teammates and recognition nationally. Earlier this month, the senior was one of 55 players nominated for the Burlsworth Trophy for most outstanding player who began his career as a walk-on.

Kickoff for Alabama and Charleston Southern is set for 3:00 PM on the SEC Network.
