With stress and fear gone, Husker tight end Allen feels ready to attack as receiver and blocker

"I feel like I'm ready," Allen said this week. "Last year, there were a lot of times when there were stressful situations where I was like, 'Oh, gosh, what do I do? I have to know what I have to do right now.'"

Beckton's group is led by 6-4, 260-pound junior Jack Stoll, who started every game last season and finished with 21 receptions for 245 yards and three touchdowns. Allen and Rafdal (6-7, 245) are a quarterback's dream in terms of their expansive catch radius. Meanwhile, redshirt freshman Katerian LeGrone (6-3, 245) has been working hard to learn more of the intricate details of the offense, the coach said.
