To make sense of Florida’s 29-22 win against Kentucky, the narrative has been disseminated that Kyle Trask is a hero for leading the Florida football comeback. This narrative couldn’t be more misleading.
In reality, Trask was quarterback as Kentucky allowed Florida to come back. Wildcat corners played a lot of soft coverage and the initial cushion that they granted to Gator receivers made Trask’s work easy while he only had to throw to open receivers. After a strong start, he did not look accurate when Kentucky’s extremely young secondary played closer to opposing receivers.
