Florida’s two Kyles near top of USA TODAY Sports’ Heisman Trophy list

While Lawrence’s totals exceed the sum of both Trask’s and Pitts’ numbers the two Gators still lead the rest of the field by a wide margin.

The Florida Gators football team has looked really sharp on offense this season so far, albeit against two unranked teams who are hardly the cream of the crop in the Southeastern Conference. Nonetheless, the quarterback-to-tight end tandem of Kyle Trask and Kyle Pitts has been the most electric combination in college football this fall and both have entered serious contention for the Heisman Trophy.

Top-ranked Clemson Tigers’ quarterback Trevor Lawrence — the preseason favorite for the award — still holds a firm grip on the lead according to USA TODAY Sports’ staff vote, with the two Kyles sit in second and third places behind the superlative junior. While Lawrence’s total points exceed the sum of both Trask’s and Pitts’ vote numbers, the two Gators still lead the rest of the field by a similarly wide margin.

The Clemson standout received 16 first-place votes, against two for both of the Kyles; Clemson running back Travis Etienne was the only other player to receive a first-place mention. Trask and Pitts’ 20 and 19 total points, respectively, more than double Alabama Crimson Tide‘s Mac Jones’s fourth-place finish with eight points.
