A Fox News report said that Malachi Toney, a star receiver for top-ranked Miami, is set to undergo surgery on an ankle injury. The outlet's headline described the development as a "nightmare injury concern" for the team ahead of Saturday's showdown with Notre Dame.
Fox News reported that Notre Dame needs a signature win to climb the College Football Playoff rankings, and that the Toney injury adds a new complication to Saturday's Miami matchup.
