There’s a lot to it, I think, but the principal factors are psychological.

There are a whole number of different thoughts I have on this, all of which I think have merit:

-Getting pumped up for the big game, not intimidated by it.

-Keeping things positive, even when things are a bit off or luck goes awry.

-Have players in their most comfortable roles to ensure success.

-Replicating the same game-time conditions to help ease pre-game stress. (Have a consistent pre-game routine)

-Visualization is key. See yourself being successful in your endeavors before you ever step on the field.

-Train hard, play hard. It’s a lot easier to tell yourself you can outrun, outplay team X if you’ve been busting your balls all winter long getting in shape and working on your skills.

-Stay cool. Don’t force things just because it’s the big game.

-Don’t think, do. I’ll elaborate on this sometime in an entirely new post.
