Things have hardly gone as planned at the quarterback position for multiple SEC teams this year, and it’s safe to say that no one drew it up quite like this ahead of the season.
Kyle Trask and Mac Jones were expected to be standouts within the conference and have produced, now both very much in contention to win the Heisman Trophy.
Outside of that, we’ve seen teams like LSU struggle to find a starter the offense can thrive with after Myles Brennan was sidelined due to injury, and programs like Mississippi State turn to a true freshman to take the snaps.
Nearing the end of what’s been an unprecedented season in the conference, here’s a look at where each SEC quarterback stands ahead out Saturday:
1. Kyle Trask, Florida.
The race between Kyle Trask and Mac Jones for the Heisman honors couldn’t be much closer, and with the SEC Championship game now only one week away, we’ll have a clearer idea of who the winner should be.
Trask continued to be as consistent and solid as we’ve seen him be this season in last week’s 31-19 win over Tennessee, completing 35-of-49 passes for 433 yards with four touchdowns and no interceptions.
