re: Brandon Allen Appreciation Thread

I'm holding out hope that BA's (and the Hogs) confidence skyrockets after the last few games of the season and winning so convincingly in a bowl game. Going into this game, I think BA could have gone into the offseason knowing that he had improved on his previous season pretty significantly. But did he WIN the Hogs any games? Did he do anything...special?

Well after this game, I think he has a little bit of swagger momentum going. He wasn't a superstar or anything tonight, but he hit on some throws that he's been missing. He made some plays happen with his legs. He got multiple receivers involved.

BA's ceiling as a so-called "game manager" is pretty much what we saw tonight. As a third year starter with a lot of confidence coming into his senior year, I could see BA stepping up and playing closer to his "peak" on a consistent basis.

Of course, I secretly hope a random stud QB transfers here or that one of the other QB's puts it all together.
