Mmmm do you think Auburn has looked impressive so far? They have a non-existent passing game. And it isn’t like your coach isn’t on the hot seat. Auburn lost 5 games last year. It exactly tearing it up.
Outlook for season post Franks injury...
- Thread starter Gator Fever
- Start date
Keyzer,
I disagree.
The QB who started ahead of Trask in HS was D’Eriq King now the starting QB at Univ Houston.
King not much of a player, but FWIW, he became the first player to both pass and rush for a touchdown in 14 consecutive games since 2006, when former
Florida signal-caller Tim Tebow accomplished the feat while playing for the national champion Gators. IMO, Trask not starting in HS is understandable.

Another opinion I hold, is that CFB offenses go in cycles. When SOS arrived at UF in 1990, everyone in the SEC ran the ball, played defense, & used the kicking game to establish field position because that was the only way to win. Alabama was the epitome of that philosophy.
After winning 6 SEC & 1 National title, Spurrier changed all that.
Current 2019 offensive stats for Bama's first 3 games show that they have rushed for 539 Yds & 7 TDs while passing for 1147 Yds & 13 TDs. Their offense much better than UF (only currently, I hope) but even so, they are 2 to 1 pass versus run in Yds & TDs.
Opinion - the two best QB in college football are Tua Tagovailoa & Trevor Lawrence, both of whom I think of as a drop back passers rather than option QBs.
Passing QBs & passing offenses are coming back in style for one reason - to win games.
You couldn’t be more wrong. King started ahead of Trask because his team ran the zone option spread and he’s a dual threat. That’s how he rushed for all those TDs.
1986 isn’t coming back to football. Ever.
HS coaches aren’t going to wait for a Marino or Manning to show up so they can win. Instead they will run modern concepts and put their best athlete at QB. Sometimes that guy is a good passer sometimes he’s not. But if you don’t think Tua is killing people with his legs then you aren’t watching and Lawrence runs it some too he scored a td last night rushing.
Since high schools aren’t producing old style QBs there’s no need to expect colleges to run old style systems. It’s a thing of the past, like the huddle. Remember when the QB had to be the captain and you had to huddle every play? Saban, who can get any player he wants, realized that he couldn’t get quality pro style QBs and changed to the spread. The NFL is changing too.
Like I said guys like Trask don’t play QB anymore, they play O line. Dan Marino would be a Tackle if he was in Hs today, you may not want to believe it, but it’s the cold hard facts

better than Florida. Talk shit now. You won't be at the end of the season.
The Florida team I have seen could very well be struggling just to have a winning season by the end of the sesson
Lol delusional. While you're analyzing UF's game to death self-inflicted mistakes are the only thing that kept you from being blown out by an Oregon team that will lose 4 games. And you're the one over here talking shit, why I have no idea. You're in year 8 of Malzahn and don't have any hope to win anything of significance.
Yes and you have a coach that is in on the hot seat year after year. Good luck. And again Auburn has zero passing game as well.
You say this ..but have had post after post dissing Franks. Which is it Debbie?
You are just one miserable human being.
Franks sucks... Franks sucks... Franks sucks...to we will now lose more games with Franks being injured.
You are 100% correct. He basically sounds like a miserable person all the time. Must not lead a very fun life with that kind of personality. Everything and everyone sucks. LOL
I see people on facebook and other sites now saying we're "clearly" a 7-8 win team but I still see 9 wins - I think 9.5 was my personal over/under before the season. Optimism depends on the Oline though imo, more than the QB which was the case before FF went down.
If we can't run the ball it's going to be a problem.
Malzahn hasn't won squat, even as an assistant. If you're talking about the 2013 BCS Championship, Malzahn has the distinction of being the first and only SEC coach to lose a BCS title game. The only title Gus has is from high school.
And we scored 19 points in the 4th with an unheralded backup QB who was a high school backup QB.
Yikes.
Hahahahahahahaha hahahahahahahahaI think I've figured you out.
I guess you missed the run/pitch option that Trask ran to prefection on a pitch to Perine for a TD while Trask was being tackled.
And you also must have missed Trask's 4 yard QB draw tor the go-ahead TD?
Sore-kester is much like the fevered-brain, both biased and clueless...
While UF was only without their best player on offense (WR/RB Harvin 2.0 Toney) and their best player on defense (CB Henderson). While the #1 DL Zuniga went out with a sprained ankle in the first series. Others starters also went out dinged up during the game.
PS -- UF came from behind in the 2nd half with their #2 QB and won on the road.
PSS - UF outscored UK 22-7 in the 2nd half...

Tom Brady has a ton of short yardage runs.
Does not make him a spread option style QB.
Nuance must make you sick.

Nuance. Learn it.
wait wait wait wait wait a damn second here. Are you actually insinuating that Oregon is an actual ranked team? A weakling pac10 team that actually DESERVES the charity ranking it's currently sitting on, and thereby you are saying Auburn is a great team as well simply because it had a last minute heroic comeback at home to beat that said overrated Oregon team?
At HOME. Losing to garbage oregon AT HOME till the final minute. Say what you will about Florida's outing against Kentucky but that was an away game in front of a packed Kentucky house in what is by Kentucky's own admission, their superbowl game of the season. And Florida wasn't just leading in the final minute either.
I have no problems whatsoever confidently stating that if Kentucky and Oregon were to play RIGHT now, Kentucky would blow the doors off that garbage Pac10 school.

Thanks Danny. I thought he was a head coach at Ark State or some other school in Arkansas back then.
That was my senior year at Auburn so I remember it pretty strong.
I initially wanted Malzahn as our head coach when Meyer retired and was surprised but thought Muschamp would be a good hire regardless (this was December 2010, before offensive minded coaches had completely taken over the game and I didn't realize that defensive minded headcoaches couldn't make the adjustments needed to keep up.
I still think we'd be in better shape had we hired Gus to replace Meyer. The talent he'd be working with would have been much better suited at the time plus the in-state talent.
In fairness, Trask is not as slow as a Manning or Marino but that's a whole other argument.
I watch numerous High School games in 3 different states throughout the season as a hobby that pays as a side gig. No, High School coaches aren't waiting on the next Marino to show up. However they aren't finding the next Mike Vick either. If a Marino shows up, he isn't being put at LT either. He is still playing QB. In between those Marino's coaches are going with the Treon Harris types for the time being. There are more Treon's out there then there are Lamar Jackson s. Sometimes it is downright sloppy play at the QB position by putting the athletic kid who can throw the best compared to the rest of the roster at the QB position. However it's what they have to do because it is all they have to work with. If the rocket arm with somewhat moveable feet shows up and they can read a defense, the coach puts them at QB and not on the Oline. I see coaches year to year adjust their offenses to their given personal.
On a side note there are numerous former players and coaches out there making side money being personal trainers to future Marino types. They are making good money and even parents fly or drive many miles and pay a pretty penny to have their kid coached up by what were non athletic former QBs. The pocket passer isn't dead. They just benefit that much more if they have somewhat nimble feet.
In the case of King and Trask...that coach was fortunate to have two great QBs. Had he not had King, he would have installed a passing offense and won games with Trask. However he had a great QB in King and adjusted accordingly. There were numerous coaches who wanted Trask as their QB but Trask was committed to Manvel, a place he grew up from day 1. Trask was kept as a package QB. Not moved to offensive tackle. Other coaches wanted Trask as a QB...not an offensive tackle.
There are still Jake Fromm's of the college world that keep their teams competing. There are still Treon's and Brandon Harris's that are athletic but sloppy as heck as QBs.
Trask has prepared for such a moment for the past 7 years whether it came or not.

He's a bukeye, wouldn't you fixate on other teams if you were a OHS fan also ?
Reads also as a bit salty over the 2006 Natty game.
Just observation from a drunken indian here tho so ....
Yeah he may be an OSU fan, but he is so bitter and angry at the world, I would mistake him for a Missouri fan if I didn't know any better.
It must truly suck knowing that your entire existence is only predicated on beating hapless michigan every year. Other than that you just sit around 364 days of the year wearing some of the ugliest team colors worshiping a pot leaf and a poisonous nut. The mascot is a walking caricature of a nugget of poop.

For some reason, his username is ohsfan, which all of us assume he's a Buckeye, but he is actually an Auburn fan. Please don't ask me to explain the ohsfan name, and he has about 6 other usernames that has ohsfan but with different numbers next to his name.
He sounds like one of those social justice warrior types who are offended at everything, even at the fact they were born. Just someone who hates life. That's why I thought he might be a Missouri fan in disguise. We rarely see that kind of anger and hatred around here from anyone short of the jortgia fleas we can't seem to eradicate.
Trask is probably pretty limited and I doubt he fares too well once the Auburn game arrives. I want to see what Jones can do with a few starts under his belt as he is the only QB made for what Mullen wants to do. It wouldn't surprise me if he is starting around the SC game unless our defense is playing 2012 style allowing us to win games with the offense not producing much.
