When Clemson topped Alabama on Monday night to capture the 2018 national championship, it marked the last of the 40 games that make up college football's postseason.

The year's USA TODAY Sports all-bowl team is led at quarterback by Clemson's Trevor Lawrence, who tossed three touchdowns without an interception as the Tigers surprisingly defeated the Crimson Tide in overwhelming fashion.

Across two College Football Playoff games, Lawrence accounted for 674 passing yards and six touchdowns without an interception. Not bad for a true freshman.

Lawrence has some familiar faces joining him on the team. Four teammates earned selections, giving Clemson five, the most of any school in the postseason.

OFFENSE

QB: Trevor Lawrence, Clemson

He threw for 327 yards and three scores against Notre Dame and another 347 yards and three touchdowns against Alabama and won a national title to cap the best season by a true freshman quarterback.

RB: Trayeon Williams, Texas A&M

RB: Mohamed Ibrahim, Minnesota

Williams set a new Gator Bowl record with 236 rushing yards on just 19 carries in the Aggies' 52-13 win against North Carolina State. Ibrahim closed his freshman season with 224 yards and two scores in the Gophers' 34-10 win against Georgia Tech in the Quick Lane Bowl.

WR: Justyn Ross, Clemson

WR: T.J. Rahming, Duke

WR: Hakeem Butler, Iowa State

Ross had a combined 301 receiving yards and three touchdowns in wins against Notre Dame and Alabama. Rahming caught 12 passes for 240 yards as the Blue Devils topped Temple 56-27 in the Independence Bowl. Butler had 192 receiving yards in the Cyclones' narrow Alamo Bow loss to Washington State.

OL: Mitch Hyatt, Clemson

OL: Joe Lowery, Ohio

OL: Bryce Holland, Army

OL: Andre Dillard, Washington State

OL: Samuel Cosmi, Texas

Hyatt ended his college career by leading Clemson to a terrific performance against the Crimson Tide's defensive front. Lowery was one of several Ohio linemen worthy of commendation after shoving around San Diego State in the Frisco Bowl. Holland was his normally effective self in Army's rout of Houston. Dillard protected Minshew from the Iowa State pass rush and Cosmi showed why he's among the nation's top prospects as the top lineman in the Longhorns' Sugar Bowl win against Georgia.

DEFENSE

DL: Chase Young, Ohio State

DL: Quinnen Williams, Alabama

DL: Christian Wilkins, Clemson

DL: Willie Baker, Louisiana Tech

Young drew a top grade in the pass rush in keying Ohio State's win in the Rose Bowl against Washington. Even in an Alabama loss, Williams showed against Clemson why he's the most disruptive interior lineman in the country. Wilkins was almost unstoppable across two postseason games. And Baker pulled down four sacks as Louisiana Tech won the Hawaii Bowl.

LB: Josh Allen, Kentucky

LB: James Nachtigal, Army

LB: Sione Takitaki, Brigham Young

Allen was unsurprisingly dominant with three sacks in Kentucky's win in the Citrus Bowl against Penn State. Nachtigal led Army with 16 tackles and forced three fumbles against Houston. Takitaki led all bowl defenders with 19 stops to help BYU top Western Michigan in the Famous Idaho Potato Bowl.

DB: Chauncey Gardner-Johnson, Florida

DB: Jaylinn Hawkins, California

DB: Jake Gervase, Iowa

DB: Trayvon Mullen, Clemson

Gardner-Johnson made two picks against Michigan in the Peach Bowl, capping the Gators' 41-15 win with an interception returned for a touchdown. Hawkins had three interceptions in the Golden Bears' ugly Cheez-It Bowl loss to TCU. Gervase made six tackles and pulled down an interception to seal Iowa's win against Mississippi State in the Outback Bowl. Mullen's pick-six in the first quarter set the tone against Alabama.

SPECIALISTS

K: Tyler Bass, Georgia Southern

P: Adam Nunez, TCU

RET: Lynn Bowden, Kentucky

Bass made a 40-yard field goal as time expired to lift Georgia Southern past Eastern Michigan in the Camellia Bowl. Nunez was a key factor in the Horned Frogs' overtime win against California with an average of 44.7 yards per punt. In addition to his team-best 84 receiving yards, Bowden's 58-yard punt return for a touchdown keyed the Wildcats' bowl win against Penn State.
