Someone posted earlier that he was building them up to excuse a loss to them. I agree with that assertion.[/quote]
ok. please show me one coach interview where a coach has ever said "oh, i'm not worried about the game next week as our opponent sucks."[/quote]
You're not going to find a dismissal of an opponent that overt but you're also not going to find any coach equating one of the worst teams in a program's history to one of their best. I guess we could chalk this up as more of June's trademark hyperbole, that or he hasn't actually watched Southern Miss play this season.[/quote]
I made the quote earlier based upon his postgame comments. In addition, he stated specifically that his comments were based upon watching their film. Perhaps that was just coach-speak or perhaps it was an obvious lie.
