SYRACUSE, N.Y. – Syracuse football's 38-point victory over Holy Cross yesterday allowed for veterans to experiment with different roles and for underclassmen who are just getting their feet wet in college football to make contributions. Throughout the game, head coach Dino Babers and his staff tried players in new spots, while true freshmen received valuable snaps in game situations that should benefit them down the road.

Among the newcomers who made an impact was freshman tight end Luke Benson, who caught his first career touchdown pass in the fourth quarter.
