Army quarterback Bryson Daily added to his impressive 2024 season with three first-quarter rushing touchdowns against UAB (1-4, 0-2 AAC) on Saturday afternoon.
He scored his first just one minute and 21 seconds into the game on a 29-yard run toward his left, stiff-arming a Blazers defender at the line of scrimmage before accelerating toward the end zone.
He took a draw nine yards up the middle for his second score to give Army (5-0, 4-0 in AAC) a 13-3 lead following a missed two-point conversion attempt.
Daily scored his third touchdown on a 13-yard run toward his right, fighting past three UAB defenders at the five-yard line before falling into the end zone.
Daily finished the first quarter with five carries for 86 yards and three touchdowns.
His three scores added to his 10 rushing touchdowns entering Week 7, which were tied with Navy quarterback Blake Horvath for the most in the AAC.
Daily also began Saturday second in the conference in rushing (602 yards), trailing Tulane running back Makhi Hughes (604 yards).
His 13 rushing touchdowns through the first quarter of Week 7 are the second-most in FBS, only trailing Heisman-frontrunner Boise State running back Ashton Jeanty (16).
In the second quarter, Daily added a fourth touchdown with a 50-yard pass to wide receiver Casey Reynolds to give Army a 34-3 lead.
The Black Knights are one of 12 remaining undefeated teams in FBS and are well on their way to improving to 6-0 for the first time since 1996.
