Bilbo, a senior from Moss Point, Miss., caught eight passes for 131 yards, including a spectacular 48-yard touchdown catch that was the No. 3 Top Play of the Day on ESPN. Entering the game, Bilbo had eight catches for 108 yards in his career as a wide receiver, covering two seasons and one game. He proved that he can still throw.
