11/05/20 - DE George Karlaftis, Jr/2022, Purdue

Illinois' veteran offensive line was challenged against Wisconsin, particularly with the Badgers loading the box. Things won't get easier against Purdue. George Karlaftis is a rushing machine and recorded both a sack and a tackle for a loss last week. He led Purdue with 17 tackles for a loss and 7.5 sacks as a true freshman last season - recording two TFLs and a sack against the Illini. Defensive tackle Lorenzo Neal Jr., who sat out last season with injury and is the son of former NFL player Lorenzo Neal, was an all-Big Ten selection in 2018. "Technique is huge when you play against those types of players," Illinois center Doug Kramer Jr. said. "You've got to make up for whatever might be lacking. When you play in the Big Ten against D-Lineman, technique is critical because they're great players as well so that's what it comes down to.

"Karlaftis on the edge is another great player. Obviously he was a freshman last year and he's coming into his second year and he looks improved from last year. He looks stronger on tape, so that will be challenging for our tackles on the edge. When he occasionally does move inside, it will bring the challenge to the inside guys. Really what we have to do is match the intensity, play hard and get back to what we want to be known for which is that toughness, grit and establishing the run game, which we weren't able to do last week." - Herald-Review Times
