HERO Sports is going to count down each day by highlighting the best player in the FCS who wears the jersey number equal to the number of days until kickoff. You can find the running list of top players here.

*Note: Jersey numbers are from the 2018 season.

79: P.J. Burkhalter, OL (Jr.) — Nicholls

The big man has been key in Nicholls' success since he stepped into the starting lineup as a freshman in 2017. Burkhalter started in 12 games at guard that year and established himself as one of the top offensive lineman in the Southland Conference.

The 6-foot-3, 330-pounder backed that up last year with All-Southland honorable mention honors. Nicholls had the 12th best rushing attack in the FCS in 2018 with 246.8 yards a game.

Durability is huge for offensive linemen, and Burkhalter has started in all 25 games for the Colonels in the last two seasons.
