Clemson and Alabama ties run deep, stretch back decades

Lots of old school bama mojo lining up there with orange and tiger paws. You can almost see Bear Bryant looking down on them with an orange hound's tooth hat on. Think about how out of place Nick Saban would look in that array.
We need to wear his "business as usual" rear end out.

I am kind of concerned when Saban hangs it up in Alabama. They are going to throw a lot of cash at Dabo.

There are closet Clemson fans in Alabama. But I can tell you this; this Tiger stuck in Huntsville ain't quiet at all.

He pulls for Texas A&M. In this game, I'll bet he has mixed feelings wanting both his pupil and friend to win and his former team to do well, also.

Coach Howard also played at Alabama and was from Barlow Bend, AL. We played Bama twice when he coached and couldn't beat them. The time is right. The Tide will go down Monday evening.
