With it being a bye week, I'm guessing they've also been looking at the film of the new OC who was the QB coach.
I think Popinga is simply saying don't expect everything you see on film. The same players with the same skill and athleticism, but their season is in free-fall right now so there's nothing to keep them from trying something entirely new. Like OSU showing up after a bye week with an option running attack that BYU had never seen before.
