"The key is we have to go out and execute," Murphy said. "The thing that was different between the first and second halves versus Brown was that we executed in the second half. We didn't execute in the first half or against Holy Cross."
An interesting footnote to this game is that Murphy's first coaching job was in at Lafayette, working for then-Lafayette head Coach Bill Russo, who retired last year.

Though Harvard has played Lafayette a few times--though not since 1996, so no current Harvard player has played Lafayette--those games were in Cambridge so this will be Murphy's first return to Easton, Penn., as head coach of the Crimson.
