At this point of the year, football fans are starving for any semblance of on-field action. Even if that action comes in the form of a glorified scrimmage.
Florida’s annual spring game, the Orange & Blue Debut, took place on Friday night and fans flocked to The Swamp to watch the defending SEC East champs. Those in attendance were treated to at least one highlight, as star receiver Antonio Callaway hurdled a defender before running out of bounds.

Nothing will count for several more months, but Callaway is already out there flexing his playmaking abilities. If Florida can find a reliable quarterback, which is the team’s main storyline this spring, Callaway is dangerous enough to become a major threat.
Callaway followed up that hurdle with a touchdown catch late in the second quarter, which gave the Orange Team a 17-0 lead.
