The SEC opened up its 2020 season on Saturday and while the action was predictably dotted with the mi sed tackles, blown coverages and silly penalties you'd expect with no preseason (or early season creampuffs), my word, did Florida and Mi si sippi State bring the offense. And in this week's QB Watch, that's where we start, before checking in on D'Eriq King and Miami, Brock Purdy and Iowa State and Sam Ehlinger and Texas. Alright, let's get to it. Kyle Trask, QB, Florida This is how we described Kyle Trask over the summer, after watching his 2019 performance: "'Steady as she goes' might be the best way to describe his game. He's not flashy but he's efficient, and in the the ability to do the right thing from one play to the next is more important than flashing once a series while drives stall out." On Saturday against Ole Charles Leno Jr. Jersey Mi s, Trask was, in fact, "steady as she goes," but there very few instances of drives stalling out. Florida's offense was on point from the kickoff right till the end when the scored showed they put up 51 points, almost all courtesy of Trask's right arm. He finished 30 of 42 for 416 yards and six (!!) touchdowns. Those six TDs ties the mark for most in an SEC opener set by ... last season. Just like a season ago, Trask didn't force throws, and was almost always accurate and on time. Of course, it helps when your receivers are running wide open for most of the afternoon -- and oh by the way, he also has the luxury of throwing to Kadarius Toney (5 catches, 59 yards) and more importantly, Kyle Pitts, Ryan Kerrigan Jersey the best tight end in the country (and who, through three of our mock drafts, ). Pitts finished with eight receptions for 170 yards and four of Trask's six touchdowns. It was one highlight after the next. Here's Trask looking left before coming back to his right, and throwing a back-shoulder strike in the end zone to 6-foot-4 Trevon Grimes: QB Kyle Trask throwing vs. man coverage last year (12 TDs / 0 INTs). He picks up where he left off throwing a beautiful 22-yd back shoulder TD to Trevon Grimes. Jordan Reid (@JReidNFL) This is just a pitch and catch, but enjoy the Pitts middle-of-the-field stiff arm without breaking stride and then only to dust the safety in a race to the end zone: Kyle Trask is just a beast Schillers_Sports_Talk (@SchillersT) And finally, here's Trask-to-Pitts again, this time a higher degree of difficulty; Trask puts the ball at the pylon, away from the defenders, knowing that Pitts' freakish athleticism gives him the advantage: TOUCHDOWN GATORS!Kyle Trask finds Kyle Pitts for his 4th pa sing touchdown of the first half. 28-14 Florida Terry Mclaurin T Shirts at halftime. CFB Kings (@CFBKings) Good luck stopping that, SEC defenses. K.J. Costello, QB, Mi si sippi State Apparently, the Air Raid offense wasn't supposed to work in the SEC. If what we saw Saturday at Tiger Stadium was the Air Raid not working, then Lord help us when first-year Mi si sippi State coach figures this thing out. Stanford transfer K.J. Costello, who played in just five games last season because of injuries, was in tip-top form against the defending national champs, LSU. Granted, this LSU team looked nothing like the group won it all eight months ago; the NFL and pandemic opt-outs led to a roster makeover, but none of that is Costello's problem. And he didn't just game-manage his way through an improbable win on the road -- he put on a show. It wasn't a flawle s performance; Costello lost two fumbles (one wasn't his fault) and threw two interceptions, including a pick six in which he was late acro s the middle and North Dakota State transfer Jabril Cox (remember that name, he's going to be special) took it to the house. PICK SIX. Jabril Cox making something happen for . CBS Sports (@CBSSports) But for most of the day, Costello wore out his receivers, mostly on quick strikes and mesh concepts that had the LSU defense off-balance all game (it didn't help that the Tigers insisted on playing a ton of man-to-man coverage). Costello doesn't have the strongest arm but he shows the ability to hang in the pocket and deliver the ball under pre sure. And while he won't be confused with Burrow in terms of athleticism, Costello throws well on the move and off-platform. Say goodbye! A perfect catch and run for . CBS Sports (@CBSSports) And when he did throw deep (almost always down the sidelines) he continually dropped it in the bucket to his intended target. The first touchdown in the Mike Leach era was a beauty. CBS Sports (@CBSSports) Costello was Sam Howell Jersey the beneficiary of some wide-open targets who would take short pa ses a long way (see Kylin Hill, ), but there's no doubt if he continues along this trajectory he'll be on an NFL roster next year. is currently the starter for the and , who succeeded Minshew at Washington State under Leach, put up huge numbers in 2019, had a solid Senior Bowl and played well enough to get drafted. D'Eriq King, QB, Miami We'll start off by repeating after Miami manhandled Louisville: "Man, King and new offensive coordinator Rhett Lashlee ain't fooling around." Following a modest season-opening win over UAB in which the Hurricanes leaned on the run, the offense opened up against the last week and continued down that same path against a haple s Florida State team on Saturday night. Maybe the worst thing you can say about King's game is that he mi sed a wide-open Brevin Jordan on the first drive ... only to make up for it a few plays: Brevin Jordan | GO CANES! Troy Apke Jersey (@83_87_89_91_01) Not a particularly difficult throw but here's another touchdown, this time with Marvin Wilson about to clock King, who still delivers a strike: DEriq King | GO CANES! (@83_87_89_91_01) The game was over by halftime but King, who be 5-foot-10, continues to show the ability to get through his progre sions unhurried. It helps that his athleticism allows him to be so elusive in the pocket, and his ability to make something out of nothing while also making good decisions is something we used to say about undersized and when they were in college. King, who also ran for 65 yards against the Seminoles, does need to get better at taking fewer hits. Sam Ehlinger, QB, Texas Sam Ehlinger flashed against Texas Tech in a game the Longhorns sure looked like they were going to lose. He was 27 of 40 for 262 yards, with five touchdowns and an interception, and while many of his pa ses were of the short and intermediate variety, when he dialed it up deep, he showed accuracy and touch. Sam Ehlinger to Joshua Logan Thomas Jersey Moore. Play the fight song CJ Vogel (@cjvogel3) Ehlinger did had a bad interception at the end of the third quarter with the Longhorns leading by three. Fast-forward to late in the forth, now down 15 points and Ehlinger got to work. When it was over, he had throw three touchdowns in the final quarter and overtime, including what proved to be the game-winner: Heres the play that won it: hits Josh Moore for
