FSU football: 3 reasons I'm confident in wide receiver unit for 2024

FSU Run Game
One of the things that helped the FSU passing attack was the effectiveness of the FSU running game. The Noles struggled some early in the 2022 season, but something clicked in the second half. Trey Benson took over for an injured Treshaun Ward, and the Noles rattled off seven consecutive 200-yard rushing games to finish the regular season. The Noles averaged 5.47 yards per carry and had 33 rushing touchdowns. I think we'll see FSU return to that type of success on the ground in 2024.
The offensive line has the potential to be the best it's ever been in the Mike Norvell era. DJ Uiagalelei isn't Jordan Travis with his legs, but he's durable and will be a plus one in the running game. I think the running backs have better overall vision than last year, and Mike Norvell has found ways to be effective in the run game, no matter what. An effective run game will force teams to bring more defenders closer to the line of scrimmage, opening things up in the passing game.
