These are somewhat revealing:

Fromm was 20/30 for 279 yds and 2 TDs.

UGA rushing? 119 total for an average of 3.2 yds a carry, well below their usual output.

UF had 21 yds rushing and Trask was minus 27 yds with 2 sacks. We had 1.1 yds a carry.

You forgot 12 - 18 on third down for the defense.

Straws how come you NEVER talked about the defense when Franks was QB? You like to change paths if it suits you. Again, our defense held their vaulted run game to 119 yds. It was death by Fromm passing or Swift running for 185 yds and 2 scores. Any coach would pick letting your foe try to beat you by passing....its football 101.

Because he's not a good Quarterback and often times we lost because of him or it was close specifically because of him.

Miami (Threw an inexcusable interception in the fourth quarter up three into triple coverage)

Kentucky (Pick to start the game, offense only had 10 points until Trask came in)

The defense played poorly, our running game has been abysmal but our offense has never been this effective.

Sure, sometimes the defense let down the offense during Franks' tenure -- a lot of it is because he simply never sustained drives. There were literally several games where he failed to even attain a single sustained drive. (Finch correctly pointed this out against Tennessee last year.)

Then you have games where Franks threw for less than 100 yards (he had three different games where he failed to do so before the fourth quarter several times last year.)

Trask is not the problem of the team and he certainly hasn't been the problem.

Franks was a problem for several games, including the time he got rolled up and smoked like a chump against Georgia last year when he threw a pick directly to a DB and fumbled one the one yard line because lol reasons.
