Jack Murray

Miami quarterback Cam Ward has joined some elite company.

In the Hurricanes 42-14 victory over Wake Forest, the senior quarterback broke Bernie Kosar's program record for passing yards in a single season. This feat saw Kosar himself take to X to celebrate Ward.

Fans took to social media to praise Ward for breaking Kosar's record and hyped up his Heisman candidacy.

Ward finished the day 27-of-38 for 280 yards with two touchdowns and one interception while also adding a touchdown on the ground.

The Hurricanes produced 508 total offensive yards and limited the Demon Deacons to just 193. Jordan Lyle paced the rushing attack with seven carries for 115 yards and a touchdown. Jacolby George was the top receiver with seven catches for 91 yards and two touchdowns.

Miami's improves to 10-1 with the victory and will head to Syracuse next week to close out the season. This redemption performance came after the team dropped its previous game against Georgia Tech, but the push for a conference championship and a berth in the College Football Playoff is officially back with the win over the Demon Deacons.
