Cam Ward’s spot in the Miami Hurricanes’ record books is secure. The quarterback already has the school record for single-season touchdown passes. He’s all but certain to set the school record for single-season passing yards next game.

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.

College football fans go wild on social media after Miami and Cam Ward lose their first game of the 2024 season to Georgia Tech

Miami quarterback Cam Ward tossed his 30th touchdown of the season Saturday against Georgia Tech, breaking his school's single-season passing touchdowns record and becoming the first FBS quarterback to throw for at least 30 touchdowns in the process.

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.

The Miami Hurricanes lost to Georgia Tech 28-23 in Week 11 of the 2024 college football season. Haynes King handed Cam Ward and No. 4 UM its first loss.

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 against the Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets, he made history.
