"NORFOLK, Va. --  Taylor Heinicke threw for a Division I-record 730 yards on Saturday as Old Dominion rallied to beat New Hampshire 64-61 in the Colonial Athletic Association opener for both teams.

Heinicke set school records for completions (55), attempts (79), and passing yards (730) as New Hampshire (2-2), an FCS school, dominated the CAA's top-ranked defense throughout the first three quarters, taking a 54-38 lead into the fourth.

Former Houston quarterback David Klingler held the previous D-I record, throwing for 716 yards against Arizona State on Dec. 2, 1990.

The former FCS record was held by Weber State's Jamie Martin, who threw for 624 yards against Idaho State in 1991.

Division I includes both FBS and FCS schools.

Heinicke, though, is no Sam Durley.

Durley, of Division III Eureka (Ill.) College, set the NCAA single-game mark with 736 passing yards in his team's 62-55 come-from-behind win against Knox earlier this year.

How good was Heinicke?

According to ESPN Stats and Information, nine FBS teams (including reclassifiers) had played at least twice entering Saturday and still had not racked up Heinicke's 730 yards: Tulane, Massachusetts, Southern Miss, Temple, Hawaii, Kent State, Navy, Texas State and UAB.

On Saturday, Heinicke threw five touchdown passes, including two to Nick Mayers, and Angus Harperscored on a 2-yard run, capping a 23-0 scoring run for the Monarchs. Mayers hauled in 12 passes for 271 yards.

The Wildcats rallied, tying the game at 61-61 behind a 45-yard pass from Andy Vailas, but Heinicke led the Monarchs on an 11-play, 74-yard drive that ended with Jared Brown's game-winning 25-yard field goal.

Old Dominion (3-0) has outscored opponents 132-24 in the second half this season.

Heinicke, a sophomore from Atlanta, has thrown for 1,921 and 19 touchdowns for Old Dominion (4-0).

Vailas led New Hampshire with five passing touchdowns.

Information from The Associated Press was used in this report."

The Charlotte Observer's Joe Person confirmed Taylor Heinicke will start the Panthers' final two games at quarterback with Cam Newton (shoulder) done for the year.

The Panthers have dropped six straight to tumble to 6-8 and are essentially out of the playoff mix barring a complete miracle. Newton isn't healthy and hasn't been for weeks. Heinicke has never started an NFL game but will now. He's 3-of-5 passing for 56 yards in his career. Heinicke is a small-ish 6'1/210 product of Old Dominion where he reset the record books. He tested extremely well athletically in 2015 coming out of college with a 4.60/4.63 forty and explosive 10-foot-3 broad jump. Heinicke gets a terrible Falcons defense at home in Week 16 and a road date in the Superdome for Week 17 against a Saints team that could be resting starters by then. Heinicke is the stone minimum $6,000 on FanDuel this week.

It was pretty cool at the time because we were just a FCS school at the time and it made national news. We ran an air raid at ODU and we didn't have anything at RB that year. The guy's a beast at leading his receivers open and has a great vision of the field.

    • I don’t know about floor in a team defense sense but we needed more.  The floor that I am familiar with is our QBs floor and it is so low that every other part of the team needs to be beefed up.     We tried our best to improve these things and I think we did improve the defense and we at least kept the offense  from sinking from no LT.  And ostensibly helped the receivers too.   So we kept a window open that we at least have a chance to improve our record by a game of two.  Which would probably give us the division.

    • Yeah. I am one of. those who think a JAG RB can eat with really good blocking. (Brooks is most important in my mind, in tbe passing game and that is what we’ll lose without him)  There are a lot of aspects to this. The big one that caused us to struggle is Young and his arm scared no one.  Best back, best blocking still cannot defeat a really good defense if they are not forced to respect the pass.  And teams did not.    But, a strong OL and running game Can get us over against weaker defenses.  And if Bryce still doesn’t scare anyone we can still win some games. Like last year  So it is really important to tend to that OL.   Get that straight and see if in his fourth year he can finally back defenses off. That is what if is all about this year to me, on the Bryce front.
