I wanted to make a big deal of the ideal stat line I wanted for Kyle Trask in Florida’s final regular season game against LSU this Saturday night (7 p.m., ESPN or WatchESPN).
I was going to start from the touchdowns: Trask has 38 already this year, and his 39th and 40th will tie and break the record for touchdown passes in a season by a Gator currently held by Danny Wuerffel and set during his magical 1996 campaign. But Trask throwing for nine — implausible, but not impossible, against this LSU defense — would get him the Gators’ single-game record, too, and would also bring some nice symmetry: Trask’s first season ending with Florida at 4-7 and him redshirting and his final season ending with Florida aimed at the College Football Playoff and him in Heisman Trophy contention after 47 touchdown throws in 10 games would be an irresistible detail of his dominance.
