We've just witnessed one of the best single-game performances in college football produced by a wide receiver.
On Friday night, the (1-0) Miami Hurricanes surpassed the (1-1) Stanford Cardinal 45-6 in the season opener. It did not take long for Miami Hurricanes quarterback Darian Mensah to connect with one of the most electrifying players in college football, Malachi Toney. The duo torched the Cardinal defense from start to finish.
In the first half, Toney put up video game-type numbers, recording 10 receptions for 182 receiving yards and two scores. The person delivering him the rock was Duke transfer quarterback Darian Mensah. He completed 18 of his 21 throws, 253 passing yards, and three scores.
The Cardinal defense did not have an answer for the two. Toney was getting open with ease and Mensah was putting the ball right where it needed to be. Miami showed many explosive plays on the offensive end. When you have someone like Toney to make a play after catching it, it just makes it harder on the defense.
Toney surpassed Eddie Brown's record and became Miami’s single-game performance leader. Toney finished the day with a total of 233 receiving yards on 12 receptions and three touchdowns. Mensah was better than ever, completing 27 of his 30 passes, recording 401 total yards, and five touchdown passes.
Both players just showed the nation why they should be in consideration for the Heisman Trophy. Having a quarterback like Mensah and a slot receiver like Toney creates a dangerous threat to opponents as their chemistry is off the charts.
