2022 College 20+ Yard Completions Leaders

College play-by-play before 2025 does not record where passes went, so depth, direction, ACE and throw maps start in 2025. Counting stats are the official NCAA season lines.

Completions that gained 20 yards or more.

The 2022 leaders: Austin Reed (61), Caleb Williams (61), Jayden de Laura (61).
