Alabama DE Allen: Washington players were 'soft'

ATLANTA -- After Alabama's dominating 24-7 victory against Washington Saturday in the Chick-fil-A Peach Bowl, Crimson Tide defensive end Jonathan Allen called the Huskies "soft." That was actually an improvement over what he called them walking off the field at halftime.

"They were soft," Allen told ESPN's Brett McMurphy after the game. "No disrespect, but we could have played better."

Allen had six tackles, including a sack, as the No. 1-ranked Crimson Tide advanced to the CFB Playoff title game against either Clemson or Ohio State Jan. 9 in Tampa. Alabama held Washington to 194 yards.
