Tigers drop a tough game to the Tide in Arizona. See who stood out the Championship game.

Offense

Deshaun Watson, QB, Sophomore, A+: I don't think anything more could have been done by Watson. It's only fitting that the real best player in America breaks a National Championship game record by throwing for 405 yards. 405. It's been 2 days since the game and my jaw still drops reading that. He added 93 rushing yards to that. 30 completions, 4 TD's and an interception. If he isn't the leader for the Heisman coming into next year, then that award is truly a joke.
