Bisontis started all 13 games as a true freshman last season, 12 at right tackle and he started in the Texas Bowl at right guard. He earned ESPN Freshman All-America and SEC All-Freshman Team recognition in 2023.
The Ramsey, New Jersey, native helped the offense record 300-plus yards passing in four games, while yielding 2.0 sacks or less in nine games. Bisontis and the offensive line paved the way for the rushing attack to rack up over 200 yards in wins over Auburn (209), Arkansas (204) and Mississippi State (246).
