The 1st team offense looks pretty dominant going against the mainly 2nd team defense playing vanilla. The starting O line will push around the D line some resulting in some nice runs and Franks will make a few big sideline passes to our receivers. I think the coaching staff is going to avoid having the QBs throwing too many high risk passes.
I just want to see Franks calm under pressure and not throwing any boneheaded picks. That would be enough for me to feel slightly optimistic for this season.
Only because he can script the whole game.Nuss calls a fabulous game.

Trask lights up the scoreboard with an aerial assault like we haven't seen since the days of Rexy
From the above article.....
While Franks might have the stronger right arm, it's not like Trask has a noodle. He might throw an even prettier ball and some around the program think he has more control.
From what I've heard, Frank's stronger arm, Trask better touch. But this is Spring, a lot can change from Spring to Fall.. a lot of work will be put in by the team to get ready.
BREAKING NEWS:
This article says the game will be 1st team O vs. 1st team D...

All eyes are on the quarterbacks, but that’s not all I’ll be looking for on Friday night:
1. Strength vs. strength
A year ago, it looked like the Florida offense was back. Luke Del Rio marched the team up and down the field, completed nearly all of his passes (11-of-12) and threw two touchdowns – against the second-team defense. After a devastating post-Will Grier finish to the 2015 season, McElwain likely felt it was necessary to remind everyone that his offense can actually score points. By purposely mismatching the first and second strings, the coach gave the fans some fireworks.
This time around, it should be first-team against first-team. Fans remember Del Rio’s impressive spring game and shaky regular season. If Friday night has Franks lighting up the second-team defense, it tells us nothing about Florida heading into the 2017 season.
