<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Yin and yang, peanut butter &amp; jelly, seashore &amp; a sunset, offense and defense. All of these are perfect pairings, and in the vain of a <em>PrepRedzoneIL </em>All-State Team, we have a star-studded defensive squad to follow up the recently published offensive feature. If you missed the 2023-24 <em>PRzIL </em>Underclassmen All-State Offensive squad, make sure you check out the homepage of the site, as the days of research and grinding the tape helped put together the best, most comprehensive, current, and accurate underclassmen top-performer matchup anywhere on paper or the never-ending internet. Now, we're onto the defensive side of the ball, as well as special teams, and boy there are some studs on this list. Taking into account age, production, competition level, versatility, and occasionally film, these are the undisputed best freshmen and sophomore defensive linemen, linebackers, defensive backs, athletes, and specialists the Land of Lincoln has to offer, and I think it's safe to say the future of Illinois' gridiron exploits and recruiting prowess is in good hands. If you think we missed any sophomore or freshmen worthy and deserving of an All-State defensive nod, please don't hesitate to respectfully email me at: oliver@prepredzone.com !
