The Miami Hurricanes begin their College Football Playoff campaign on Saturday against Texas A&M.
For The U to advance, it'll likely need a big game out of freshman superstar Malachi Toney.
Toney is a special talent, and he's proven it over and over this season.
He's also got some fascinating connections that stem from his name and his family tree, although they aren't quite what you might think at first glance.
Is Malachi Toney related to Kadarius Toney?
Malachi Toney is not related to Kadarius Toney.
Kadarius was the former Florida star who never panned out in the NFL with the New York Giants, Kansas City Chiefs or Cleveland Browns.
Malachi shares the last name, and he's also a college football star in the state of Florida, but they aren't related.
Who is Malachi Toney's dad?
Malachi Toney's dad is a former NFL player named Antonio Brown.
No, not the Pittsburgh Steelers' enigmatic star wide receiver.
Instead, this is the NFL's original Antonio Brown.
He starred in college at West Virginia and spent some time in the CFL.
This 5-foot-10 Brown played three seasons in the NFL, one for the Buffalo Bills and then two for Washington.
He was officially a wide receiver, but he only had one career target along with two rushes.
Brown mostly returned kicks, with 1,551 kick return yards and 263 punt return yards.
The football genes have clearly been passed on to Malachi, who is already a shining star for Miami.
