The two Gators on the preseason All-SEC first team shook off the rust and immediately took over the game.
The Kyle-to-Kyle connection between quarterback Kyle Trask and tight end Kyle Pitts was alive and well in the Gators’ season-opening 51-35 win over Ole Miss. Pitts hauled in eight passes from Trask for 170 yards and four touchdowns. “Kyle to Kyle” was even a trending topic on Twitter.
“Me and Kyle are always talking,” Pitts said. “(We’re) good friends, and ‘Kyle to Kyle,’ we go around and jokingly say that.”
Florida’s offense moved the ball at will all day, collecting 642 yards.
