51 days and counting... (Sorry Cole)
Alright. Admittedly, this is (kind of) cheating. But there's no number 51 on the 2015 Penn State Football roster, so we had to figure something out.
Paul Posluszny wore number 31 during his Hall of Fame caliber four year career with the Nittany Lions. A two-time All-American, two-time national defensive player of the year, and ESPN's Academic All-American of the Year for 2006, Poz may lay claim to the most prestigious of all titles - greatest Nittany Lion linebacker to ever grace the grass at Beaver Stadium. The first junior captain in decades at Penn State, Posluszny's leadership dragged Penn State out of the "dark years" era of 2001 through 2004 and back to national prominence with Big Ten and Orange Bowl Championships in 2005, where the team finished 3rd nationally.
