MIAMI GARDENS, Fla. -- Another week, another record for Miami quarterback Cam Ward.

The Heisman Trophy contender - who already holds the Hurricanes' single-season record for touchdown passes and is on pace to break the school mark for completion percentage - on Saturday passed Bernie Kosar for Miami's record for passing yards in a season.

Ward's 13-yard completion to Damien Martinez with 1:27 left in the second quarter gave him 3,643 yards for the season. Kosar's mark of 3,642 yards stood for 40 years after he set the record in 1984.
