“I went up to Cade and told him, ‘You’re born for this. Just know that.’ The rest of the guys were locked in. You knew Hassan (Haskins) was. Good play by Erick All, who was coming off a high-ankle sprain. We finally got that play called and in a perfect situation. Just really happy for everybody.”

The pep talk obviously worked for MacNamara.
