Tosses touchdown in win Allen rushed 23 times for 135 yards and caught his lone target for a 10-yard reception during Saturday's 42-7 win over Northwestern. He also completed a 23-yard passing touchdown.

Impact Allen rushed for over 100 yards for the third time this season after being stifled for just two rushing yards across eight carries against Illinois last week. The sophomore also lined up in a wildcat set out of a shotgun snap before scrambling and tossing a catch-and-run touchdown to fellow running back Chez Mellusi (upper body) late in the third quarter. Allen could stand to see increased usage moving forward after Mellusi suffered what could be a long-term injury during Saturday's win.

Held under double-digit yards Allen recorded two rushing yards across eight carries during Saturday's 34-10 loss to Illinois.

Impact Allen was limited to his lowest number of carries dating back to Week 5 of his 2021 freshman season. The 235-pound back could not break through the Fighting Illini's defensive front seven, as the Badgers were held to just two rushing yards over 24 carries as a team. Allen now sits at 6.2 yards per carry and 16.2 rushes per game through the first five weeks of the 2022 campaign, though both these numbers could continue to drop throughout Big Ten play.

Scores late TD Allen rushed 23 times for 165 yards and a touchdown during Saturday's 52-21 loss to Ohio State. He also added three receptions (three targets) for six yards.

Impact Allen recorded season-highs in carries and rushing yards, though nearly half of the production came via one 75-yard touchdown run midway through the fourth quarter of Saturday's blowout loss. Otherwise, the sophomore back averaged a moderate 4.1 yards per carry against the Buckeyes' rush defense. Allen's overall performance was likely a result of the broader struggles of the Badgers offense, and he'll face another tough test next week against Illinois, which allowed 2.9 yards per carry and 87.3 rushing yards per game over the first four weeks of the season.

Punches in three scores Allen recorded 86 yards and three touchdowns on 15 carries during Saturday's 66-7 victory versus New Mexico State.

Impact Allen tallied his fewest total rushing yards of the season despite finding the end zone on three of his 15 total touches against the Aggies. The sophomore's performance through the Badgers' non-conference schedule currently has the 6-foot-2, 235-pound rusher on track to just slightly eclipse his overall production from last season (186--1,268--12), though it's likely that he could see increased usage as the team leans on him to help carry the offense through upcoming conference play. Wisconsin will still likely continue to utilize senior Chez Mellusi out the backfield in order to help spare Allen from an overly-heavy workload moving forward.
