Bojo vs. Dabo — Bobby Johnson and Vanderbilt may face Dabo Swinney and Clemson in the Music City Bowl


Clemson is reportedly going to hire Dabo Swinney as its head coach. Dabo made a bunch of changes as soon as he got the interim job and then he went out and beat the hated Gamecocks. (But ask West Virginia fans about hiring a beloved assistant after an emotional win.)

Remember back when Tommy Bowden was fired? Vanderbilt was 5-0 at the time and Clemson chat rooms were abuzz with fans who wanted former Tiger defensive back Bobby Johnson as their head man.

Since then, Vanderbilt's lost 6 of 7 games and Johnson has said he plans to coach the Commodores as long as they'll have him, etc. And Clemson actually has seven wins.

Anyway, both Mark Schlabach and Bruce Feldman at ESPN.com are projecting Vanderbilt to play Clemson in the Music City Bowl.

Think those Clemson fans will be doing some second-guessing if that matchup happens and then the Commodores win the game?
