I made the same observation. But regardless, his comments are true of any game and any opponent at this point.

Yeah...I noticed this too... I don’t think I’ve ever heard him use the word before, especially when referring to our game against an opponent...not sure if he is trying to warn the fan base or set up the media for the fact that we will be much better at the end of the year because of our youth...also thought maybe he was trying to make sure people respected A&M when we win but they will have many more opportunities to earn that’s respect...which leads me to think that he knows we are going and may be exposed in defense and is just making sure he lets everyone know that if we lose we will still be a playoff team later on...it was just weird to hear him say it Iah and he has said it in every regular scheduled weekly presser!!! Interesting stuff...

I do not see us losing this game. Texas A&M has our full attention and any time that happens and the FPI index and power index and whatever index you want to look at suggests that we will win the game by double digits we always win. I doubt we cover the 17 point spread but we win.
We have lost a couple of games in the last 5 years that we absolutely should have won such as Pitt and Syracuse. Those were odd games that we did not play well and allowed a lesser team to hang around too long. This game has been circled on the calendar for months by the Tigers so I feel good about the outcome.
A&M might be confident but losing their entire front 7 on defense, bringing back the majority of our offense, and Brent Venables on the sideline are the reasons we win this game.

Yup. I was surprised he said that. I got his point but seemed odd to me.

He also said that national championship hasn’t been discussed with this group or even brought up. So take that for what it’s worth. It’s a young team. A really young team.
