Michigan State just made more plays than we did.

He's more aggressive as far as blocking and picking up blitzes and reading the holes in the run game. It makes a lot of difference in getting first downs.

We didn't have many of the former players come back in the past. It's helping us focus more, and it's helping us remember how grateful we should be to be at Notre Dame, and that it's important for us to bring back the tradition.

The ref said it was a push-off. I don't really remember. There was a lot of physical hand-fighting on the deep ball. I guess I did push off if the ref said that. It was a big factor.

I think it's just a change overall in our program, the way we approached spring ball, the way we approached the off-season workouts, the way we approach practice. I think that plays a big part. How we work in the weight room, overall what we do in the classroom, what we do off the field, everything just has changed. A lot of that has to do with Coach Weis and how he's changed the program around.

Teams get too sure of themselves that they have the game under control and play at a lesser level in the second half.
