Illini Inquirer's Jeremy Werner and Joey Wagner break down the 2021 Illinois offensive line group, buoyed by a handful of super seniors. The guys discuss what it means that Bret Bielema brings back All-Big Ten seniors Alex Palczewski, Vederian Lowe and Doug Kramer for one more season and how good they make this group. The guys then break down what likely starter Blake Jeresaty adds before diving into the candidates for the open guard competition: former walk-on tight end Alex Pihlstrom, transfer Jack Badovinac and tackle Julian Pearl. The guys then discuss the long-term of this position and what the group could look like in 2022 after all the super seniors depart.
