ODU QB Throws For D1 Record 730 Yards

((HT: WAVY-TV))

The HQ continues to marvel at OSG High graduate, Collins Hill (GA) High's Taylor Heinecke...

All he did this week was throw for an NCAA Division I record 730 yards in a come-from-behind, 64-61 win against top 20 team New Hampshire... but it still took a Jarod Brown chip shot field goal and a last-second pick to seal it.

His passing numbers were just one yard less than the overall record of 731 set by D3 Menlo (CA) College's Zamir Amin against Cal Lutheran in 2000. The old Division I record of 716 yards was by Houston's David Klingler in 1990 against Arizona State. The D I-AA/FCS record was 624 set by Weber State's Jamie Martin against Idaho State in 1991.

Got all that...??? There'll be a test later on...

Heinecke also ran the ball 11 times for 61 yards. So, that means the 791 yards of total offense beats the 732 by David Klingler in that same game in 1990, and the I-AA/FCS record was 668 total yards by Robert Kent of Jackson State against Alabama in 2001.

Until today...

Here's the highlights... The HQ thinks it's the short version...

ODU comes from behind in 64-61 win
