TUSCALOOSA, Ala. -- Jonathan Allen isnt really interested in talking about the Superman play where the blocker went low and he went airborne into Texas A&M quarterback Trevor Knight. No. 1 Alabamas talented defensive end also shrugs off any questions about whether he could garner some Heisman Trophy votes.The 291-pounder has generated attention by returning two fumbles for touchdowns and making that midair hit leading up to Saturdays game against No. 15 LSU, plus an assortment of other plays along the way for one of the nations top defenses.He doesnt want to talk about it, Crimson Tide tight end O.J. Howard said. Hes a humble guy.Allen has played an even bigger role since opting to return for his senior season despite being projected as a likely high-round NFL draft pick. Hes one of the Southeastern Conferences elite pass rushers and now is preparing to face the Tigers running attack led by Leonard Fournette.Allen has six sacks and a team-high 10 quarterback hurries while leading the Tides linemen in tackles with 35. He has also matched the touchdowns scored by both leading rusher Damien Harris and Howard.The big plays have helped Allen stand out even on a defense loaded with star power. Hes on the field in more running situations this season with the departure of interior linemen Jarran Reed and AShawn Robinson.We sort of saved him a little bit for the pass rush situations last season, Tide coach Nick Saban said. He played some and alternated in there and did a really good job. But this year hes having to play in all phases of the game and has done really well, whether were playing against a running team or whether hes been called upon to pass rush or whatever its been.I would say that we had confidence that he could do all those things a year ago. He didnt have to do them as often.Allen has had a showmans impeccable timing for big plays. If youre going to take flight for a sack, might as well do it in a top 10 matchup with millions of fans watching.I heard a little bit about it, he said. I try not to focus on it. Im just trying to go out there and get better honestly, and try not to worry about what weve done in the past.LSU interim coach Ed Orgeron seems more impressed by the play than Allen.I see him jumping over that tailback that tried to cut him and hitting the quarterback underneath the jaw, Orgeron said. Great effort. Tremendous athlete. Good hip flexibility. Great hands. Very well-coached. Plays with a motor.I have a vision of him jumping over that tailback, hitting the quarterback.The bigger play in that game two weeks ago was his pivotal 30-yard fumble return for a touchdown late in the third quarter of a tight game .Against Mississippi, in Alabamas toughest test of the season, Allen rambled 75 yards after another fumble to all but put the game away in the fourth quarter, though the Rebels made a late rally.I never scored in high school, Allen said. Its cool. Its cool to think about sometimes.Thats about as excitable as he gets when talking about his own play. But that Texas A&M performance did generate some Heisman buzz at a position where that subject seldom even comes up.I dont focus on it, Allen said. Its kind of irrelevant to me. I just want to win a national championship. Thats all I care about. Thats all I ever wanted to do, to be honest. I am just focused on winning this next game.---AP Sports Writer Brett Martel contributed to this report.---More AP college football: www.collegefootball.ap.org Wholesale Raiders Jerseys ., for the next three years with the signings on Monday of Daryl Townsend and Michael Carter.

Its been an injury-plagued season for Datsyuk, who has suited up for just 39 games.Mercedes boss Toto Wolff has dismissed suggestions Nico Rosberg is the title favourite and tipped Lewis Hamilton to quickly close the gap. Rosberg has won all three of 2016s grands prix thus far and opened up a 36-point advantage at the top of the drivers championship after victory in Shanghai where Hamilton finished seventh.However, with a record 21 races this year, Wolff insists the title fight is far from over with 18 grands prix still to come. Asked if Rosberg was the favourite, the Austrian replied: No. It is just three out of 21, so statistically there is so much more to come that you cant speak about any favourite. Hamilton: Im out jokers Lewis Hamilton admits he cannot afford another poor weekend in 2016 At this stage of the season its about collecting points without looking at the championship.Lewis has every reason to be upset about the result. He wouldnt be a three-time world champion if that didnt upset him, but I have no doubt he will make a quick recovery.The gap is substantial but it is very early days. He is mentally very strong so I have no doubt that it will be close at the end.
