Oregon QB Dillon Gabriel becomes FBS all-time leader with 179 touchdowns

Oregon quarterback Dillon Gabriel became the FBS all-time leader in touchdowns with 179. With his second touchdown pass in Saturday’s game against Maryland, Gabriel surpassed Case Keenum, who previously set the record from 2007-11 in Houston.

Gabriel hit offensive lineman Gernorris Wilson for a three-yard score midway through the third quarter to take first. Just before halftime, he put Keenum on the all-time scoring list with a nine-yard touchdown pass to Terrance Ferguson with 20 seconds left in the second quarter.

Through his six college seasons, Gabriel has 146 passing touchdowns, 32 rushing scores and one receiving touchdown. Across the three schools he has played for in his career, Gabriel has thrown for 70 TDs at UCF, 55 at Oklahoma and 21 so far at Oregon. He rushed for eight TDs for the Knights, 18 for the Sooners and six for the Ducks. His only receiving touchdown came at UCF during the 2021 season.
