Thank You Kenny Allen

Submitted by wildbackdunesman on

Had Kenny Allen not been 3 for 3 today, the game could have been in jeopardy.  He has had a rough start to the season, I bet he turns it around.

Love it. Ultimate redemption.

He had 3 FGs, and we wound up winning by 9. 

Great for future recruits, too. Our coaches won't give up on you during struggles.

The Team, The Team, The Team. An unsung hero today.

Actually, the penalty that led to the long 40+ yard fg was debated by the announcers, and made that a longer fg attempt. But he made it and now our kicker has even more confidence for the rest of the season. Thanks D'antonio!

It has been nice to see him work his way out of that funk earlier in the season a la Wisconsin, and indeed, today had to be a great confidence builder for him realizing how much of a difference he did make. Great team effort all around, but Kenny Allen definitely made a huge contribution to today's outcome.

I have known Kenny and his family since he was in 7th grade. He's a great kid from a wonderful family. Glad to see he was given a chance to work through whatever his issues were during the Wisconsin. Happy for him to see him make good on it.

He was clutch today. It must be very hard to handle kickoffs, place kicking and punting. If it were easy, NFL teams would do it and save the roster spot. He had a tough go in one game, but was money today.
