Cam Ward stands alone as the Miami Hurricanes’ single-season touchdown passes leader. Ward’s 74-yard touchdown to Elijah in the first quarter against Georgia Tech on Saturday was his 30th of the season, breaking a tie with Steve Walsh’s mark from the 1988 season for the most in a single season in Hurricanes history.

Despite the criticism, Ward still finished the day 25-of-39 passing for 348 yards and 3 TDs compared to the lone, yet critical, fumble. The Hurricanes dropped to 9-1 overall and 5-1 in the ACC, tied with Clemson and a half-game back of 5-0 SMU.

ATLANTIA — Cam Ward now stands alone in the Hurricanes’ record book. The Miami star quarterback threw a touchdown pass to Elijah Arroyo in the first quarter of Miami’s road game against Georgia Tech on Saturday. The score was his 30th touchdown pass of the season, passing Steve Walsh to set the program’s single-season touchdown pass record.

Miami quarterback and Heisman Trophy contender Cam Ward has another milestone on his resume. Ward is now the Hurricanes' single-season record holder for touchdown passes, reaching that mark Saturday.

While Miami's defense is nowhere near as good as the ones that helped make the program dominant, they do happen to have one of the best quarterbacks in the country, Cam Ward. The Washington State transfer has carried the team all season, and on Saturday, in the team's Week 11 game against the Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets, he made history.
