Nussmeier played in nine games this season, missing the final four due to an undisclosed injury that reportedly limited him during the season. His 7,699 career passing yards are third in program history behind Tommy Hodson and Joe Burrow.
AJ Haulcy and Barion Brown are Tigers that had previously accepted invites to play in this year’s game.
The Senior Bowl will be played in Mobile, Ala., on Jan. 31.
