During the 2002 season, Wimprine set the record for the most pass attempts in a game with 53 against South Florida. His 32 pass completions in the South Florida contest also set a new Tiger mark. In the season opener against Murray State, Wimprine threw five touchdown passes which broke his old record of four in a single game. He is now the record holder for the most pass attempts in a season with 435 and for the most pass completions in a single season with 235. Both marks were reached during the 2002 campaign. His 2,820 yards passing last season shattered the old record of 2,249 set by Bernard Oden in Wimprine tossed a record 23 touchdown passes in 2002 which took care of the old record of 18 set by Steve Matthews in He enters the 2003 season ranked first in career touchdown passes with 37, tied for second in career attempts with 631, third in completions with 337 and third in yardage with 4,149 yards. He needs just 53 yards to overtake Lloyd Patterson (4,201) and 163 yards to surpass Danny Sparkman (4,311) as the Tigers' all-time leading passer.
