Texas A&M coach Jimbo Fisher once served as Nick Saban’s offensive coordinator at LSU and sounded a little like his old boss this week.
The Aggies (3-1 SEC) have risen to No. 7 in the AP Top 25 after consecutive wins over Florida and Mississippi State.
Asked Monday about the success, Fisher sounded a major note of caution to his players during a bye week about handling the media attention.
“It’s all garbage, it’s all poison,” Fisher said. “Right now, we need to worry about next week and how we get better this week. And then get ready for Arkansas and don’t worry about the scoreboard, and win your space. You can’t worry about what you all say, and I don’t mean that with any disrespect to any of you all...
”We’re in a results-based world in what we do and how we prepare to play."
