for great hustle into the end zone and recovering the fumbled-almost Touchdown. How many d-linemen would run 50 yards to the end zone. Not many. He will be a really good d-lineman.

Nelson Adams is my son's coach and he got unto my son for stopping when the RB got past him. My son said I could not catch him. Coach Adams got onto him and explain that anything can happen and never give up. My son was at game with me and he said I know what coach Adams was saying now.
Nelson also chased someone down and almost caught up to them in the A&M game in 2016 on a similar play, great bulldog.
Thanks for posting tcdog70!
This may have gotten more love in the game thread, but glad to see it generate an additional thread. T
he hustle shown on that play was outstanding. Overall, while the Dline did what the Dline always does - I also thought there was a higher level of play with our LBing group this game as well - which was fantastic to see.
Kobe ran a long way chasing that play! Great effort by the big man! I've noticed this year that we have a lot of guys chasing the football and not letting up. If nothing else JoMo has these kids playing without a lot of effort!
You must spread some Reputation around before giving it to Jack Lambert again. Congrats on raising a boy right. It always helps to see a life lesson in front of you.Quote:

There was a lot of hustle on that play and kids playing til the end. Smitherman, Mclaurin, Kobe, man I love seeing hustle!Quote:

That was their first road game other then going to Atlanta which was really a home game for them. The crowd and the defense really got to him.Quote:

O.T. Question for the coaches & ex coaches: When you have a strong running attack (like ours when it's clicking) , would it be a good idea early in the game when you are looking at a 3rd & 6, 7 or so, line up in standard or even a passing formation and call some type of running play? Kinda set a tone early on? Even if you didn't convert, you keep that shit in their heads for the remainder of the game? Does that have the ability to open up some play action later on?
Was a great play! Nine times out of ten, Auburn scores there and on the TD overthrow. And we normally would not have a chipshot FG blocked. Final Score probably should have been 26-23 Dogs.....but that's why we play the game! Strange things happen!!
He got out wide on the FG that Auburn blocked, forcing the returner back inside and that probably saved a touchdown.Quote:
