Note
The period is what goes missing here. Prof. is the abbreviation of Professor, and without its point the clipped form stands on its own as a word. It takes an ordinary plural, Profs, with no apostrophe and no period. The bare spelling carries an informal register, so in careful or formal writing the dotted abbreviation is the safer choice.
