  "account": "Eli Drinkwitz recognized that Caleb Goodie's two catches were instrumental in Mizzou's 45-17 victory over Florida. Goodie, who had limited opportunities before the game, showcased his big-play ability with a first-half touchdown and the crucial third-down catch in the second half. Before the game, Goodie had only nine targets with just one catch. After the game, it became clear that Goodie was a downfield vertical receiver. His average depth of target was 23.2 yards, which was significantly higher compared to his teammates. Goodie's speed and ability to stretch the field vertically allowed him to make big plays, as demonstrated in the two highlighted plays against Florida. His first touchdown came on a 31-yard strike, while his second catch involved beating his defender and gaining 17 yards after the catch. Although Goodie may not be a catch-and-run threat like other receivers, his ability to make big plays when given the opportunity has become a significant asset for the Mizzou offense.",
