GAINESVILLE, Fla. — Kyle Trask didn't really know what to call his first touchdown pass of the day.
He thought about it for a few seconds before settling on "kind of a free throw shot." If so, his last two scores were breakaways dunks.
Trask threw for a career-high 363 yards and three touchdowns — the best passing performance by a Florida quarterback since Tim Tebow's college finale — and the 10th-ranked Gators overcame a lackluster start to thump Vanderbilt 56-0 Saturday.
"I think we could have put up a lot more," Trask said.
Florida (8-2, 5-2 Southeastern Conference) was sluggish early, failing to convert a fourth down on the opening possession against the league's worst defense, missing a field goal and throwing two interceptions.
