Friendly rivalry between former Oklahoma coaches
Clemson defensive coordinator and Brent Venables and Ohio State offensive coordinator Kevin Wilson will be butting heads from opposite sidelines in the Fiesta Bowl.
It will be nothing new.
As assistants under Bob Stoops at Oklahoma between 2002-10, Venables and Wilson tried to get the best of each other every day in practice.
"Those practices were so fun because it was so competitive and you never knew what you were going to get," said Wilson, who spent six seasons as Indiana's head coach before becoming Ohio State's offensive coordinator in 2017.
