Mandatory Credit: Nathan Ray Seebeck-Imagn Images Miami Hurricanes quarterback Cam Ward became the all-time leader in Division I career touchdown passes during the first half of the Pop-Tarts Bowl on Saturday.
Ward had three passing scores in the half and the first of them was a 4-yard touchdown to Jacolby George for the 156th of his career, allowing him to pass Houston's Case Keenum (2007-11).
Ward also threw touchdown passes to Joshisa Trader and Elijah Arroyo in the first half as Miami led 31-28 over Iowa State in Orlando, Fla.
Ward began his college career at FCS Incarnate Word and threw 71 touchdown passes over two seasons. He then transferred to Washington State and tossed 48 scoring passes over the next two seasons.
He moved on for this lone season at Miami and he entered the game with a school-record 36 TD passes.
Ward could see his new record threatened next month. Oregon quarterback Dillon Gabriel has 153 career passing touchdown entering the College Football Playoff game against Ohio State on Jan. 1 in the Rose Bowl. Gabriel could have multiple games left in his season.
