  No one knew for sure how opting out would evolve when former Stanford running back Christian McCaffrey decided he would skip the 2016 Sun Bowl. It's lost to history, but McCaffrey was criticized by the media, fans, players, and coaches for his decision. Six short years later, opting out has not only become commonplace, it's now an accepted part of bowl season. Even the College Football Playoff and Rose Bowl aren't immune. The Boca Raton Bowl is a different story, though. Desjuan Johnson, Dyontae Johnson, and Jamal Hines aren't risking first-round status, but all three said that sitting out Tuesday's game against Liberty is unthinkable.

"If I start something, I'm going to finish it," defensive tackle Desjuan Johnson said. "There's still more out there for me. There's always room to get better and improve your technique. This is a good matchup for me to get better. I'm not where I feel like I need to be." "The love and dedication I have for these guys, I promised these guys that I was going to finish everything out with them," linebacker Dyontae Johnson said. "The bond I have with these guys, I wouldn't leave them like that." "That thought never crossed my mind because I have one more opportunity to play with my guys," said Hines, an edge rusher. "After this game, I won't play another game with Toledo across my chest." Dozens of players have opted out of bowl games this season, with more names almost certainly to be revealed. It's a business decision that is understood and no longer begrudged but still hard to comprehend in a sport as competitive as football and one that espouses brotherhood 365 days a year. - Toledo Blade

  2022 WALTER CAMP SECOND TEAM ALL-AMERICAN: DB Quinyon Mitchell, Toledo,...Mitchell is the nation's leader in passes defended with 25 (five interceptions, 20 pass breakups). His 20 breakups is the all-time Toledo record, breaking mark of 16 set by current San Francisco 49er Samuel Womack last year. He had three pass breakups in Toledo's 17-7 win over Ohio in the MAC Championship Game on Dec. 3. Earlier this season, Mitchell was named the Bronko Nagurski National Defensive Player of the Week by the FWAA for his record-breaking performance vs. Northern Illinois on Oct. 8. Mitchell grabbed four interceptions against NIU, returning two for touchdowns in the 52-32 win in DeKalb.

He collected three interceptions in the first half, the first of which he returned for a 25-yard pick six to put Toledo ahead 14-0 in the first quarter. He also returned his second interception for a touchdown, and his third pick came in the final seconds of the second quarter in NIU's end zone. Mitchell's final interception of the game came on Northern Illinois' opening drive of the second half. The four interceptions were the first four of Mitchell's career, tied the school record set back in 1950, and was the first time a Rocket had two pick sixes in one game. The Toledo standard of four interceptions in a game was set by Jerry Palmer vs. Western Reserve in 1950. Mitchell is the only FBS player since 2000 with four INTs and two pick-sixes in a game. The NCAA record for interceptions is five, held by four players, most recently Dan Rebsch of Miami (Ohio) vs. Western Michigan in 1972. - Toledo Football
