Jeff Allen, Graham Pocic give Illinois experience along line

"The offensive line would definitely be one of our strengths, just as our overall ability to run the ball would be the big strength," Illini offensive coordinator Paul Petrino said.

It starts with Allen and Pocic, who shared a dorm room when they both left high school early and enrolled for the spring semester in 2008. They come from different backgrounds, Allen said, but football is one thing they have in common. They've visited each other's homes, and their different worlds haven't pushed them apart.
