Army glad to be in Memphis for AutoZone Liberty Bowl By Jarvis Greer | December 31, 2020 at 5:58 AM CST - Updated December 31 at 12:39 PM
MEMPHIS, Tenn. (WMC) - The 62nd Annual AutoZone Liberty Bowl kicks off Thursday here in Memphis with an interesting matchup for college football fans. West Virginia comes in with a 5-4 record, but a penchant for throwing to football. While Army, a late replacement for coronavirus protocolled Tennessee, is nothing but ground and pound with one of the most prolific rushing offenses in the country.
The Cadets said they’re thankful to play in any bowl after their slot in the Independence went away with that bowl’s cancellation due to COVID-19. Running back Sendon McCoy denotes the black knight’s long journey to the Bluff City despite a 0-3 season.
