Miami (Fla.) 38, Temple 0

MIAMI, Nov. 3 (UPI) -- Ken Dorsey threw his 49th and 50th career touchdown passes Saturday to establish a school record as top-ranked Miami coasted to a 38-0 Big East Conference victory over Temple.

Dorsey moved past Vinny Testaverde and Steve Walsh in the school's record book with a 15-yard touchdown pass to Kevin Beard 6:33 into the contest.

Four minutes into the second half, Dorsey built on the record by finding Andre Johnson with an 11-yard TD pass, giving the Hurricanes a 21-0 advantage. In three quarters, Dorsey finished 16-of-24 for 175 yards without an interception.

Unlike Testaverde and Walsh, Dorsey has yet to win a national championship at Miami. But Dorsey, who is 21-1 as a starter, could be on his way to joining that duo as the Hurricanes (7-0, 4-0 Big East) remained one of three unbeaten teams in Division I-A.

Phillip Buchanon returned a punt 52 yards for a touchdown in the third quarter for Miami, which is ranked first overall in the coaches poll, but just third in the BCS standings.

Safety Edward Reed also moved in the Miami record book with his 19th career interception, tying Bennie Blades' school record.

Clinton Portis and Frank Gore added touchdown runs for the Hurricanes, who have won the last 10 meetings from Temple by a combined, 448-98.

Temple (2-6, 1-4) has lost its last three games overall by a 116-10 margin.
