Maybe southern troops were, in general, willing to endure more hardships or fight a little harder because they felt they had more personally at stake than most northern troops. The southern army certainly had generally much better battlefield leadership. The southern troops themselves had a lot of respect for Yankees from the midwestern states, who tended to be farm boys just like them, and equally hard to handle.
