In OSX Yosemite, Boot Camp will create a Windows 8.1 USB drive and then say that it is for an older version of windows?

If you use Bootcamp Assistant to create your USB Installer, it prompts you for which Windows ISO to use. BCA validates that the ISO you have pointed to has a valid signature. You are in the driver seat. 😉
