Syracuse football players prepare for start of homestand against Purdue

The 2-0 Syracuse Orange have a great opportunity to continue their hot start, as they’ll spend over a month straight at home in Syracuse. We checked in with the group and here’s what they’re feeling before tomorrow’s high noon kickoff:

Mikel Jones

  • “The expectations are just getting higher and higher” after 2-0 start. Main focus is just to not get complacent with the early success.
  • Credits Coach Tony White for preaching the “attack the ball” mentality that has led to forcing five turnovers in the first two games.
  • The team is in full “Protect the Dome” mode with 4-straight home games on their schedule.
