FSU football: Top 10 bold predictions for 2022 season
By Kelvin Hunt
Mycah Pittman and Johnny Wilson will have 30+ receptions and 500+ receiving yards each
Mycah Pittman has 227 receiving yards in seven games as a freshman with Justin Herbert at QB. I’m not saying Jordan Travis is Herbert, but I think Mike Norvell will look to get the ball to Pittman in key situations.
He’s a guy they’ll look to get out in space and across the middle. Pittman was on pace to match these numbers as a freshman. It’s only 42 yards and 2.5 receptions per game.
What’s crazy is that FSU has only had one player (Tamorrion Terry) have 30+ receptions and 500+ receiving yards in a season since 2019. Johnny Wilson has shined in practice and should be a huge red zone target. It’ll be a crime if he doesn’t receive at least 4-5 targets per game.
If he can’t haul in 60 percent of targets either Jordan Travis hasn’t progressed as we thought, or he has bricks for hands. I don’t believe either. I expect the FSU passing attack to be much more formidable than in years past, and these guys are a big reason why.
