After struggling to move the ball on the goal line, Florida had to get creative to beat Michigan's defense and get into the end zone early in the Citrus Bowl on Friday. Freshman receiver Antonio Callaway threw his first career touchdown pass on a reverse run to quarterback Treon Harris for the Gators' first points of the game.

Calling a reverse pass play on the goal line may sound like a disaster, but you can't knock it if it works.

Callaway not only registered his first passing score of his Gators career, but he also set the Florida true freshman single-season receiving record in the first quarter by surpassing Reidel Anthony's 615 yards mark (set in 1994).
