Son of Alabama legend will see national title game from Clemson sideline

Nolan Turner grew up on Alabama football.

If the Crimson Tide were playing in Bryant-Denny Stadium, he'd be there. Tailgating on the quad, running around with friends.

The son of former Alabama star fullback Kevin Turner was all crimson as a kid in Vestavia Hills.

That's what could make Monday night strange. Nolan Turner will be in Raymond James Stadium for the Crimson Tide's biggest game of the season. This time he'll be in different colors -- standing on the other sideline.

Turner swapped Alabama for Clemson last year when a later scholarship offer came from an old family friend.
