Miami quarterback Cam Ward has topped 15,000 yards passing in his career, making him the 13th player recognized by the NCAA to have reached that milestone.

No. 8 Miami has dealt with some injuries in on the offensive line to start the season. fifth-year senior Jalen Rivers has been out the past two games with a lower-body injury and junior Anez Cooper missed most of the last game after his ankle was rolled on in the victory against Ball State.

Miami quarterback Cam Ward spent some time in offensive coordinator Shannon Dawson's office earlier this week, going over the Hurricanes' passing game and how things have worked through three games. They talked about plenty.
