Miami sophomore receiver Malachi Toney delivered one of the most dominant performances in recent college football history Friday night in Palo Alto, California, catching 12 of 13 passes for 234 yards and three touchdowns against Stanford. After a record-setting freshman season with 1,211 receiving yards, Toney showcased a fully developed route tree, catching four passes of 15-plus yards for 185 yards and two scores. His performance vaulted him to fifth on Draft Kings' Heisman odds list at +1,250, behind teammates Darian Mensah (+550) and stars like Jeremiah Smith and Arch Manning.

Toney earned the inaugural "Heisman of the Week" award with 10 points, outpacing Ohio State's Jeremiah Smith (eight catches, 151 yards, two TDs vs. Ball State) and Pitt's Mason Heintschel (seven touchdowns). Toney broke Eddie Brown's 1984 single-game school record of 220 yards and threatens Xavier Restrepo's career mark of 2,844 yards. Offensive coordinator Shannon Dawson's creative usage has unlocked a player Bill Connelly calls "preposterous," continuing Miami's legendary receiver lineage of Michael Irvin, Andre Johnson, Santana Moss, and Reggie Wayne.
