The No. 4 Florida State Seminoles have had to rely on No. 4 on their offense a lot more than expected coming into the year. Not only has Keon Coleman emerged as a superstar target for Jordan Travis, but Johnny Wilson has only played in five games this year.

The 6-foot-7 receiver is dealing with an undisclosed injury and has missed two of the last three games for Florida State. On the season he has 25 catches for 415 yards and two touchdowns, but Mike Norvell’s Seminoles have remained perfect in his absence.

In fact, Florida State ranks 21st in total offense and ninth in yards per play. The passing game is 25th in yards per game, leaning heavily on Michigan State transfer Keon Coleman. Coleman has 38 catches for 538 yards and nine touchdowns.

Today against Pitt, the Noles are 21.5-point favorites with a chance to clinch a spot in the ACC title game. They are 6-0 in conference play and 8-0 overall which warranted a top four ranking in the initial College Football Playoff rankings of the season.

Last week against Wake Forest, Norvell played all seven healthy receivers in the 41-16 win. Running back Trey Benson was the leading receiver with four catches for 100 yards.
