FSU football: Top 10 bold predictions for 2023 season
By Kelvin Hunt
Braden Fiske Will Have 7+ sacks
Braden Fiske might be one of the more underrated additions to the FSU lineup from the transfer portal. The Western Michigan product is a disruptor as a defensive tackle, capable of beating guards inside, but can rush off the edge when needed with his strength and quickness.
He’s a prime example of a high motor guy and will likely get 1-2 sacks coverage sacks, since I expect the FSU secondary to be better.
I also expect FSU to be in more third and predictable situations, and teams will likely give more attention to Jared Verse and Patrick Payton.
These things will allow someone like Fiske to wreak havoc at the line of scrimmage. I know it may not be a stretch to say he’ll get 7+ sacks when he had six last year at Western Michigan.
However, it is a considerable jump in competition consistently, compared to where he came from.
