The National Championship is on the line Monday night as the Clemson Tigers battle the Alabama Crimson Tide. While the sole focus of the players should be on this game, their performances will also have an impact on their future.

For many seniors, as well as underclassmen who may declare early for the 2016 NFL Draft, this will be the final opportunity for them to showcase their skills in an actual game. After Monday, our focus will turn to all-star games, the Scouting Combine and pro days. But until then, let’s take a look at who needs to step up with the national championship on the line.

Scouts will be watching closely to see which players are at the top of their game when the lights shine brightest. Who needs to step up in order to lead their school to a title? These are the prospects to watch on both sides of the ball.
