The Gander Green Lane fixture seemed to be going to form as the promotion-chasing visitors controlled the first half, going ahead through Ben Whitfield’s 36th-minute opener.
But the U’s struck back with goals either side of half-time from Harry Beautyman that threatened just a fourth league win of the season for the team who began the day at the bottom of League Two.
Morison, whose side remain six points from safety, said: “You’ve got to believe in yourselves, you’ve got to be confident.
“I’m obviously asking them to do a couple of things differently, but the fundamentals in football are you run, you work hard and I’m just trying to ask them to be brave on the ball.
“The question is: ‘Do you believe you can do it?’
“I didn’t say those exact words at half-time, but they came out and had an extra spring in their step.
“We tried to play in a different style, we kept the ball quite well but just didn’t quite have that final-third impetus, which we did in the second half. We put Barrow on the back foot and they had to make a double change to stop our flow.”
