It was like Shaw's mindset was "We're going to do what we do.  If they stop us from doing what we do, we will lose.  I'm OK with that."

We can all compare your text in italics above with Shaw's postgame comment below. I think the two are close to identical.

Q. I assume those 4th downs, that's
your strength, that's why you wanted to run the
ball there?

DAVID SHAW: Absolutely, because when
I don't do that everybody goes crazy, we should
have done this, we should have done that, so I
don't worry about any of that stuff. I'm going to put
the ball in the hands of our guys and put it on the
offensive line, we're going to go for it on 4th down
in that situation, because we'll put it back on our
defense. We'll go for a field goal down by four,
because we put it on our defense to get the ball
back, and that's what they did. I think our coaches
did a phenomenal job. We got beat today by a
really good football team.
