Dino Babers explains passing issues, previews matchup with Maryland at weekly press conference

After throwing for 176 yards and two interceptions in its season opening win at Liberty, Syracuse’s passing game has even more questions surrounding it than it did entering the season. On Monday during his weekly press conference, SU head coach Dino Babers attributed the struggles to injuries suffered during training camp and timing issues that stemmed from them.

“The throwing game is so delicate, it’s so sensitive,” Babers said. “You start taking pieces out, and moving them around, it changes everything. And I think that’s what you saw.”

Babers is likely talking about the injuries to various wide receivers throughout camp, which caused them to sit out various drills and scrimmages.
