Malik Foreman's determination

[Row 34]

The come from behind punch fumble touchback has to be one of the greatest efforts of determination from a vol in a long time. Hope this play is not forgotten in the loss.

it will be because we lost. but if we win it all it won't.

 

[The Tall Gguy]

I love this play--it shows that the team just won't quit. It won't be enough to win it all but it is something special.

I won't forget

He made a play in a high school game that was actually better, with the same result. He was 35-40 yards across field from the ball carrier and chased him down. He was something else to watch.

 

[TennesseeTarheel]

Didn't this happen to us in a game once? I remember seeing it happen, but can't recall the details. Butch said they practice it, but, boy! what a heads up play. Maybe our running backs need to start speering, too, while it's still not being called.

Foreman did it last year against USCe also. Saved that game for sure.

Quit sniffing glue, it's ruining your personality!


Watching Foreman chase him down and punch it out was amazing. You dont get to OT withought that play.

 

[RollerVol]

that was sweet, and he is a fighter, but he's got to get out of the habit of holding/grabbing jerseys...not good...:no:

GO VOLS!

 

[jakez4ut]

think about the last two weeks for him...last week he gave up the potentially game winning play to GA, this week he makes potentially the game saving play against aTm.

good for him. that was a hell of a play.

 

[Plano Vol]

Dobbin Bent men be strong!

So he makes a poor play (give up against GA) and a good play (against TA&M). He's batting .500 for the year. We need better than that to win each and every week as good teams do. Only Dobbs' hail mary pass kept us from 0-2. Not good enough yet.

I would be a hall-of-famer if I could have batted .500. Don't knock this team, they never give up.

Pig Howard lost the ball stretching out to score against Georgia a few years back.

Appreciate Foreman's effort but overall he is a liability at CB. Should have been called a few more times for PI/Holding.

We have guys hustling all the time but Foreman/Abernathy/Moseley and those guys aren't elite players you win the SEC with but they are giving their all for this team.

 

[Row 34]

There are something's that need to be admired. The drive and force of will at that moment after his successes and failures was a beautiful thing. It was a testament to him his family the team and coaches. Considering the terrible dark years of vol football if the play if this team dosent sooth your vol soul you need to check yourself. Gbo

 

[jakez4ut]

to say he's had an up and down season would be an understatement. while i do have my reservations on him as a consistent defender, the kid has heart, and he should be commended for "giving his all". even if sometimes his "all" comes up short. obviously, at other times "his all" means saving games. he has the INT in the GA game late to possibly save the win, then gives up the hail mary, then saves the aTm game.

talk about roller coaster. it's a microcosm of the whole season....wildly inconsistent....but fun to watch.

You forgot the interception he had late against GA, which would make him batting .667 by your 'math'. It would have been 1.000 had we been able to get a first down.

Dobbin Bent men be strong!

Except when they don't get to play teams around the tri-cities 😀

 

[armchair]

I commend Foreman for his effort on that play--but would prefer that he and/or other Vols make a tackle 60 or 70 yards back up in the field.

All of those guys have shown ability to play at a high level, just not consistently.

Don't confuse motion with action. They may play very hard but that is not enough. Need to get results.
