UF hero Antonio Callaway predicted touchdown prior to Gators win against Tennessee

GAINESVILLE — UF freshman Antonio Callaway had a feeling.

Hours before he lifted the Gators to an improbable victory and a sellout crowd at the Swamp to dizzying heights, Callaway told coach Jim McElwain Saturday was going to be his day.

Callaway even asked McElwain to play a role in his first touchdown celebration as a Gator.

"Antonio told me before the game that he was going to score," McElwain said. "He thought it was going to be on a punt return. He actually wanted to practice chest bumping with me, and I said I didn't know if I could get up that high anymore.
