Champagne Supernova
Posted Nov 20, 2013
Allen Champagne knows where he’s supposed to be. The junior defensive lineman is one of three players on the punt shield, the last line of defense against would-be blockers. Champagne’s job is to hold them off long enough for a punt to get away. A defender with a head start meeting the 6’4, 285-pound Champagne can make for a big impact. “When I get in there, I just want to make sure they know who I am.”
