Reaction: Kyle Trask continues Heisman-like season, torches Arkansas with 5 TDs in first half
The Arkansas Razorbacks have the SEC’s best pass defense, but you wouldn’t know it against Florida in the first half.
Gators quarterback Kyle Trask is carving up the Hogs secondary in remarkable fashion. During the first half, he completed 18-of-22 passes for 285 yards and 5 touchdowns.
Trask has now thrown 4-plus touchdowns in 6 games in a row, extending his own SEC record.
Trask’s rise from high school backup to Florida backup to one of the nation’s elite quarterbacks has been remarkable, and there’s not end in sight. Is Trask a top 10 NFL Draft pick? He’s certainly playing like it.

If Kyle trask isn’t the front runner for the heisman at this point I really don’t know what he has to do

Kyle Trask continues to impress. His receivers are helping out with some acrobatic catches too. But Trask displays the kind of poise & accuracy that will make him a first round pick. #Gators

Kyle Trask needs to be a legitimate consideration for the Heisman
