Fresno State Football

Watch Malik Sherrod’s TD run that got fans attention for Fresno State. ESPN Top 10?

Talk about playing until the whistle.

Fresno State running back Malik Sherrod proved that when he rushed for at least seven yards before he was tack .... never mind.

The referees never blew their whistles as Sherrod seemingly was tackled, but he ended up on top of players and touched the turf with one hand and got up and raced to the end zone for a 72-yard touchdown in the second quarter.

As Fox Sports described it, it was the “ole tuck ‘n roll.”

One fan believes that should be on ESPN’s SportsCenter Top 10.

You can’t disagree with that with Sherrod’s quick awareness that gave Fresno State a 14-0 lead.
