Bright spot for offense in loss Allen recorded 16 rushes for 90 yards and one touchdown and reeled in 1 of 2 targets for one yard during Saturday's 22-21 loss versus Northwestern.

Impact Allen had a solid outing in a tough loss that spurred the firing of James Franklin. Allen has been out-playing teammate Nicholas Singleton consistently, and it's unlikely that the coaching change will move the needle significantly for either back. If anything, the utilization of Allen and Singelton will likely rise with Ethan Grunkemeyer under center.
