WEST POINT, N.Y. -- Sandon McCoy ran for three first-half touchdowns and Army opened its season with a 42-0 victory over Middle Tennessee on Saturday.
McCoy scored on runs of 1, 2 and 4 yards, twice finishing drives that began after Blue Raiders turnovers.
Quarterback Christian Anderson added a 24-yard run up the middle in the third quarter and Anthony Adkins' 22-yard run completed a 99-yard drive for the Black Knights' final score in the fourth quarter. Army's longest touchdown came on a 43-yard interception return by Jon Rhattigan.
Army's triple-option offense rushed for 340 yards on an average of 5.5 yards per carry on 62 attempts.
The shutout was Army's first since a 21-0 win at Air Force in 2017 and its largest shutout win over an FBS team since a 47-0 victory over Wake Forest in 1963.
Middle Tennessee quarterback Asher O'Hara, who rushed for 1,058 yards last season, ran for just 37 yards on 10 carries and was 9-of-14 passing for 46 yards and two interceptions before being replaced.
Army limited fan attendance to the academy's approximately 4,300 cadets who were spread out at Michie Stadium, which has a capacity of 38,000. As the academy is under federal jurisdiction, they were not limited by New York state COVID-19 restrictions regarding crowds.
