The Legion Tradition Celebrity Pro-Am will bring some of the biggest names in college football to Birmingham. From Trent Dilfer to Hugh Freeze to Kirby Smart, the list of competitors for this event is staggering.
But two of the most anticipated players in Birmingham were former Alabama Crimson Tide head coach and his successor, Nick Saban and Cullen DeBoer.
But which of the Crimson duo has the better golf swing?
Let's look at both:

The first thing to note here is that Saban obviously plays a lot more golf than DeBoer, and while Saban has had a bit more free time lately, his swing is just a tad smoother than DeBoer's.
DeBoer takes the club back quite a distance to hit his driver, but in the same video, Saban can also be seen warming up his wedge.
However, after warming up, Devore himself didn't seem to have a bad swing.

DeBoer said he wishes he had more time to play golf, while Saban has been a frequent visitor to the course recently.
For now, it seems the former manager is winning against the current manager.
But DeBoer has plenty of time to catch up.
