On the other side of the ball, Aggies cornerback Will Lee will see a good test with the Texas passing attack that has some early-round talent for the 2027 NFL Draft.

    Ohio State
    • WR Brandon Inniss, No. 1

    The Matchups:

    Some of the top prospects in this game, Tate and Haynes, have been out with injuries, so their status isn’t clear. This will be a good game to gauge front-seven defensive talent with Arvell Reese, Sonny Styles, and Jaishawn Barham. They all could be early-round picks next April.




    Clemson vs. South Carolina; Nov. 29, 12:00 PM ET SECN

    The Prospects:

    Clemson
    • QB Cade Klubnik, No. 2
    • OT Blake Miller, No. 78
    • OT Tristan Leigh, No. 71
    • G Walker Parks, No. 64
    • RB Adam Randall, No. 2
    • WR Antonio Williams, No. 0
    • DT Peter Woods, No. 11
    • DT DeMonte Capehart, No. 19
    • DE T.J. Parker, No. 3
    • DE Will Heldt, No. 13
    • LB Wade Woodaz, No. 17
    • CB Avieon Terrell, No. 8
    • CB Jeadyn Lucas, No. 10
    • S Khalil Barnes, No. 7
    South Carolina
    • QB LaNorris Sellers, No. 16
    • WR Nyck Harbor, No. 8
    • RB Rahsul Faison, No. 1
    • TE Jordan Dingle, No 5
    • DE Bryan Thomas Jr., No. 46
    • DT Monkell Goodwine, No. 44
    • CB Brandon Cisse, No. 15
    • S D.Q. Smith, No. 1
    • S/CB Javon Kilroe, No. 24


    The Matchups:

    This game will be a great test for LaNorris Sellers with Clemson featuring a defensive line that will all be playing in the NFL with some early-round talents. Sellers needs more good tape, especially if he decides to enter the 2026 NFL Draft. Peter Woods could be a first-round pick next April while Will Heldt, T.J. Parker, and DeMonte Capehart could all go in the top half of the draft. Sellers is a nightmare to get on the ground with amazing escapability, so it will be interesting to see how they handle rushing him. Brandon Cisse and Avieon Terrell are early-round prospects, and they will be tested by some good receivers. Terrell is undersized, so it will be great to see how he handles a massive receiver like Nyck Harbor. Cisse could get tested by the speed of Antonio Williams.



    LSU vs. Oklahoma; Nov. 29, 3:30 PM ET ABC

    The Prospects:

    LSU
    • QB Garrett Nussmeier, No. 13
    • WR Chris Hilton Jr., No. 3
    • WR Zavion Thomas, No. 0
    • WR Aaron Anderson., No. 1
    • TE Bauer Sharp, No. 10
    • TE Donovan Green, No. 88
    • DE Patrick Payton, No. 6
    • LB Harold Perkins Jr., No. 7
    • CB Mansoor Delane, No. 4
    • CB Ashton Stamps, No. 1
    • S A.J. Haulcy, No. 13
    Oklahoma
    • QB John Mateer, No. 10
    • WR Deion Burks, No. 4
    • G Febechi Nwaiwu, No. 54
    • LT Jacob Sexton, No. 76
    • OT Derek Simmons, No. 66
    • DT Damonic Williams, No. 52
    • DE. R. Mason Thomas, No. 32


    The Matchups:

    There are two quarterback prospects in this game, with Mateer and Nussmeier. Mateer had a great start, struggled in the middle portion after sustaining a thumb injury, and has played better in recent weeks. He still needs more good tape to help his grade if he decides to enter the 2026 NFL Draft. Nussmeier has been out with an injury and has had a disappointing season. He needs to get on the field and produce some good tape to help him next April. Mateer is going to be tested by one of the top cornerbacks in the nation with LSU’s Mansoor Delane. Delane is a likely first-round pick next April.



    Alabama vs. Auburn; Nov. 29, 12:00 PM ET FOX

    The Prospects:

    Alabama
    • QB Ty Simpson, No. 15
    • C Parker Brailsford, No. 72
    • RB Jam Miller, No. 26
    • RB Dre Washington, No. 20
    • WR Germie Bernard, No. 5
    • WR Isaiah Horton, No. 1
    • TE Josh Cuevas, No. 80
    • LT Kadyn Proctor, No. 74
    • RT Wilkin Formby, No. 75
    • G Jaeden Roberts, No. 77
    • DT L.T. Overton, No. 22
    • DT Jah-Marien Latham, No. 20
    • DT Tim Keenan III, No. 96
    • DE Qua Russaw, No. 4
    • LB Justin Jefferson, No. 10
    • LB Deonte Lawson, No. 0
    • S Keon Sabb, No. 3
    • CB Domani Jackson, No. 1
    • S Bray Hubbard, No. 18
    Auburn
    • DE Keldric Faulk, No. 15
    • OT Xavier Chaplin, No. 65
    • C Connor Lew, No. 75
    • G Dillon Wade, No. 52
    • G Jeremiah Wright, No. 77
    • OT Mason Murphy, No. 65
    • TE Brandon Frazier, No. 87
    • QB Jackson Arnold, No. 11
    • WR Eric Singleton Jr., No. 1
    • DE Keyron Crawford, No. 24
    • DT Quientrail Jamison-Travis, No. 97
    • LB Caleb Wheatland, No. 43


    The Matchups:

    There is a great draft matchup in this game with Proctor taking on Auburn edge rusher Keldric Faulk. Both of them could go in the top-20 next April, so it will be interesting to see who wins their one-on-ones. When Proctor doesn’t have Faulk line up against him, he will see another quality end in Keyron Crawford. Alabama quarterback Ty Simpson has been phenomenal this season, but after a surprising loss to Oklahoma, Simpson has to carry his team in the Iron Bowl to keep the Crimson Tide in the playoff picture.
