Florida played close to perfection on the road last night on offense and it wasn't enough to beat LSU.

I think he’s just good. Saw the ESPN feature on him a week ago (Auburn Florida game) and his history and story was interesting. I know he’s a Gator but I just can’t hate the kid. He was a diamond in the rough and Florida should be happy to have him.

Kid had a gutsy performance-even injured but I with most in here-once the Tigers dialed up pressure in the 2nd half-he was a little rattled...

Same reason Vanderbilt score 24! Defense isn’t good! UNLV held them to 10 Georgia 6 Purdue 24 and ole mis 6!!

He made great throws all night. Our coverage wasn’t bad, he just made the throws.

He’s very good unfortunately.

He's been good ever since he came in for Franks. He was like 4th nationally in completion % coming in. He's good

You obviously don’t know football or didn’t pay attention. Trask was making throws that couldn’t be defended.

His ball placement was excellent on a lot of throws. Perfectly placed where the DB had no chance to do anything.

Not sure if anyone follow SEC_StatCat on Twitter but they have some in depth analytics. Trask is favorable in most of their observations.

He stayed clean most of the night. Easy to make throws when you have 4+ seconds in the pocket.

Because (and I hate complimenting that jackass) Mullen can take an average QB and make him look good. He molded Dak into an NFL QB, he made Fitz look good at State (look how much his stats fell the year after Mullen left), he actually turned Franks into a serviceable QB.

The dude just knows how to get the most out of his QBs and I’m shocked that every top rated QB prospect isn’t begging to come play for him. Now every other position on the field? That’s a completely different story.

He’s been getting lit up like a Xmas tree almost every game. Every receiver he’s been up against has created separation.

Not enough pressure for most of the game and soft zone coverage.

Also he is simply a pretty good QB. Florida is a dangerous team which has a very good chance at winning the east this year.

Yeah. Dude actually completed a higher percentage of his passes against AU than against LSU.

And, he averaged a grand total of .4 more yards per completion against them than against LSU.

I didn’t think he did. He made a lot of mistakes leading into last night, he didn’t really do that much at all other than the INT and then the ball that Delpit should’ve caught

Mullen is a GREAT QB coach. Possibly the best in the country. Hell, he took one of Les’ TE’s and made him into a starting QB in the NFL

The Saints should draft Trask.

Because LSU's DB cannot cover man-to-man very well at all.
why are people so stupid. trask was making incredible throws on great coverage by lsu

Fulton, he has sucked in man-to-man defense all year. He has basically sucked at everything
fulton made some incredible plays on great coverage. again, stupid comment

These players are not playing 100 percent every play, and I wish I knew why
if you can't see the defense was excellent last night, you're just not good at fb. mullen is REALLY good. the d does not get much of a break with lsu scoring so fast. the officials were almost as bad as the a&m fiasco.

Am I taking crazy pills? He didn’t even hit 60% of his passes. Don’t get me wrong, he performed above my expectations, but I wouldn’t not call his performance “good” as much as “adequate”.
