Malachi Toney records 234 receiving yards in Miami victory over Stanford

Miami wide receiver Malachi Toney recorded 12 receptions for 234 yards and three touchdowns in a 45-6 win against Stanford on Friday. The performance established a new Miami single-game school record for receiving yards, surpassing the 220-yard mark set by Eddie Brown in 1984. Toney also tied the school record for touchdown catches in a single game. The sophomore receiver, who recorded 1,211 yards and 10 touchdowns during his 2025 freshman campaign, has drawn early comparisons to Ohio State receiver Jeremiah Smith in the discussion regarding the nation’s top wideouts. While Smith is considered a superior NFL prospect by some evaluators due to his size and physical profile, Toney’s Week 1 performance fueled ongoing debate about which player holds the advantage at the college level.
