Sydney Supple Babers Press Conference Standup

Dino Babers previews the matchup against Colgate.

Transcript

00:00 It is officially game week here at Syracuse where I'm at the JMA Dome where kickoff will

00:04 happen this Saturday vs Colgate.

00:07 I'm Sydney Souple and I'm here with the three biggest takeaways from Hype Coach Dino

00:11 Babers press conference.

00:13 The first takeaway is Garrett Schrader is back and he is looking just as good, Babers

00:17 says, as at the beginning of last season.

00:20 Not only that, but he is no longer on a throw count so expect to see Schrader play as long

00:25 as until they get the lead, but as Babers says, Syracuse is definitely playing to win

00:30 and as long as they need him to play is as long as he will play.

00:33 The second biggest takeaway is that Colgate is definitely not a team to overlook.

00:38 You talk about a very veteran team, has experience at quarterback, tight end, and even on the

00:42 O-line and Babers says with the team just being 45 minutes down the road, he knows that

00:47 they have a lot of information on the team.

00:49 It would not be a surprise if they pull up any stops that they can to win.

00:53 So Babers is definitely not taking this one easily, nor is the rest of the team.

00:58 And my third biggest point as Babers' favorite topic at the press conference was the 12th

01:03 man, which is Syracuse's most beloved fans as he is excited for the underclassmen and

01:09 even the transfer players coming in to really get a feel for what Syracuse Nation is like

01:15 because as he says, there is no place like the Dome.

01:19 I'm Sydney Souple on SyracuseFN and I will see you here this weekend for kickoff and

01:23 week one versus Colgate.
