He doesn't have to say either one. He should have said something like "They're a great team, we're going to have to play the best game all year." Butter them up, it's something all the other players and coaches do all the time.

Maybe that's Jadar's ploy. Since everybody else is using butter, he feels a little hot sauce is needed to burn some 'Bama behind. What the heck, get them pissed a little and see if maybe they don't take some unnecessary penalties or lose focus just a bit. Perhaps the Kiffin situation will bring just a little more confusion to the 'Bama table. Anything to throw them off.

He repeatedly says over and over again that he believes the Clemson defense has to play well and play assignment football and that if they cut down on mental mistakes they will do well.
He praises their QB and RB as good and that they must contain them.
He is directly asked about the clout given to Bama, and he simply says that this is a new year and he doesn't think they're over rated. He says they're good, but he thinks Clemson is better. He says that Clemson can "Hang with them in the fight". He reiterates that his comments last week about the his comments last week about Barrett were misconstrued, and then refuses the bait about Hurts.
I don't see anything wrong with what he said at all.

is a mind game. Bama has never been asked the last several years to prove themselves the better team by being called out. This actually puts added pressure on them to prove Johnson wrong. With the OC change and Saban looking somewhat desperate it wouldn't surprise me if Bama plays very tight game.

Johnson never said anything about Barrett that was disrespectful, he answered a question honestly. Same as this here. He thinks we're better. Why even have press conferences if everyone is going to act like a drone? Bulletin board material is the most overhyped thing ever. You're either better than the other team or not. If we came out this year and said SC State sucks and doesn't belong on the same field, would the score be any different? No, they'd still get blown out. It would be great if Johnson would have said, "I've seem the tape and Hurts isn't that good of a passer. If we stop the run game then they don't score."
