U-M sticking with inconsistent K/P Kenny Allen

Despite his recent struggles, Michigan plans to stay with senior Kenny Allen in all three phases of its kicking game.

U-M football coach Jim Harbaugh said so today on the Big Ten teleconference, even after Allen missed two field goals in Saturday's 45-28 win over Colorado.

"We're going to go, as long as he's the best in all three, which he has been, until somebody beats him out in one of those phases, he'll be doing all three," Harbaugh said.

Before the season, Harbaugh said Allen would be the placekicker, punter and kickoff specialist.
