Will Dabo Swinney be cheered or booed Saturday night?

We'll find out when the Clemson head coach heads to Alabama as the Crimson Tide honor their 1992 national championship team. A Tigers spokesman confirmed to Michael Casagrande of AL.com that Swinney will fly in for the game against Arkansas, since Clemson plays Friday.

Swinney began his playing career at Alabama as a walk-on. He played three years as a wideout from 1990-92 before starting his coaching career as a graduate assistant with the Crimson Tide.

Less than a year ago, Clemson bested Alabama in the national title game 35-31, a contest that is no doubt still fresh in the minds of Crimson Tide fans.
