'''Tommy Bowden''' (born [[July 10]], [[1954]] in [[Birmingham, Alabama]]) was the head [[American football|football]] coach at [[Clemson University]] until his release midseason [[2008]]. He is the son of [[Bobby Bowden]], head coach at [[Florida State University]]. Bowden never had a losing season at Clemson. He is a two-time [[Atlantic Coast Conference|ACC]] Coach of the Year. In the 2003 season he became the first coach in [[National Collegiate Athletic Association|NCAA]] history to defeat two coaches with 200 or more wins in a one-month span, in [[Bobby Bowden]] and [[Lou Holtz]]. In November 2003 he beat his father's #3 ranked Florida State Seminoles, 26&ndash;10, at Death Valley, in a game nicknamed the Bowden Bowl.


==Coaching career==
== B. basiliscus image ==
Bowden previously was the [[head coach]] at [[Tulane University|Tulane]], and an assistant at the [[University of Alabama]], [[Auburn University]], [[Duke University]], the [[University of Kentucky]], [[East Carolina University]], and with his father at [[Florida State]]. His 1998 Tulane squad went 12&ndash;0 and achieved a top-10 final ranking in both polls. Bowden's Clemson teams have been to a [[bowl game]] every year he has been coaching there, except in 2004, when a brawl with rival [[University of South Carolina|South Carolina]] kept both teams from going to a bowl. He was fired as the head coach of Clemson Oct.13, 2008.
The old engraving of ''Basiliscus basiliscus'' currently used in the taxobox, from Lydekker, is originally captioned "Helmeted Basilisk" but the text specifies that this is being used as the common name for ''Basiliscus americanus'' (a synonym of ''Basiliscus basiliscus''). If there is reason to doubt this i.d., feel free to discard the image.
