Cam Ward set the Miami single-season record with 33 touchdowns, behind last week’s win against Duke. Ward set the record with a 49-yard TD pass to Jacolby George in the fourth quarter. Later in the game, Ward tied Steve Walsh for the Miami single-season record with 29 TD passes.

Ward has three rushing TDs and one receiving this season for 33 passing Malik Rosier previously held the Miami record with 26 TD passes and five rushing scores for a total of 31 during the 2017 season. Rosier’s record of 3,588 yards in a season should fall against Georgia Tech on Saturday.

Rosier had 3,210 passing yards and 468 rushing yards during the 2017 season for a total of 3,588 yards, setting the Miami single-season record. Ward has 3,340 total yards on 3,147 passing yards and a career-high 187 rushing yards in 2024. Ward currently ranks sixth all-time in Miami history for total yards.

Stephen Morris with 3,415 yards in 2012, Bernie Kosar with 3,412 in 1984, Brad Kaaya with 3,396 in 2016 and Craig Erickson with 3,389 stand between Ward and Rosier’s record in 2017. Ward would face Erickson, Kaaya, Kosar and Morris second quarter.

Ward is averaging 349.6 passing yards per game. The Rosier record should fall sometime in the fourth quarter. The lowest total offense output for Ward in 2024 was 204 versus Florida State. When Ward has played a full game this season, his second-lowest output has been 348 yards versus Louisville.

Georgia Tech has been defensively inconsistent in 2024. The Yellow Jackets have held four opponents to under 300 receiving yards, allowing 515 yards to Syracuse and 417 to North Carolina. Georgia Tech ranks third in the ACC with 323.3 yards per game and fifth with opponents averaging 22.4 points per game.

Saturday should be another record day for Miami wide receiver Xavier Restrepo and Ward at Georgia Tech. Restrepo is tied with Mike Harley for the program record of 182 career receptions. Restrepo tied Harley last week, passing Santana Moss for the program record of now 2,573 receiving yards.
