TALLAHASSEE, Fla. - San José State wide receiver Nick Nash has been added to the 2024 Biletnikoff Award Watch List, announced by the Tallahassee Quarterback Club (TQC) Foundation, Inc. on Wednesday.
Nash leads the country in touchdown receptions (8), receptions (50), and receptions per game (12.5) and is second in the country in receiving yards per game (159.3) and fourth in the country in receiving yards (637).
Against Kennesaw State, Nash was the first player since Nevada's Romeo Doubs against Fresno State (10/23/21) to have 17 or more catches in a single game. Nash also had 16 catches against Washington State. He also has a touchdown pass this season.
The Biletnikoff Award annually recognizes the college football season's outstanding FBS receiver at any position. Any player, regardless of position (wide receiver, tight end, slot back, and running back) who catches a pass is eligible for the award.
The semifinalists, finalists, and award recipients are selected by the distinguished Biletnikoff Award National Selection Committee, a group of 600 prominent college football journalists, commentators, announcers, Biletnikoff Award winners, and other former receivers.
