SNAP COUNTS: 86 BUCKEYES TAKE THE FIELD AS OHIO STATE PLAYS DEEP INTO ITS BENCH AGAIN IN 73-14 WIN OVER MARYLAND

108831_h.jpg


Ohio State’s 73-14 win over Maryland on Saturday was a blowout from the beginning, and as a result, most of the Buckeyes’ starters came out of the game at halftime for the second time this year.

The Buckeyes didn’t end up putting quite as many players on the field against the Terrapins as they did in their fourth game of the season against Miami (Ohio), when a season-high 97 players saw snaps in a 76-5 win, but the outcome of the game was similar. After the Buckeyes took a 42-0 lead into halftime, they put their backups in from the beginning of the second half, continued to play deeper into their bench as the game progressed and still extended their lead in a blowout victory.

In the process, 86 Buckeyes had the opportunity to play – some, potentially, for the last time this year, as Ohio State won’t be able to travel its entire roster to Rutgers and after that, the competition will ramp up for the rest of the year.

We take a look at how much all of them played in this week’s edition of Snap Counts, Eleven Warriors’ exclusive weekly breakdown of how Ohio State splits up its playing time on offense, defense and special teams.

All snap counts were compiled by Eleven Warriors and should be considered unofficial. It is not always possible to see all players on special teams units from TV camera angles for special teams units, so exact snap counts for those units are not listed.

QUARTERBACKS
Justin Fields: 51
Chris Chugunov: 29
Gunnar Hoak: 17

Fields played all 51 of Ohio State’s first-half offensive snaps, in which the Buckeyes scored six straight touchdowns and he completed 16-of-25 passing attempts for 200 yards and three touchdowns while also running five times for 28 yards and a touchdown.

Chugunov started the second half and played 29 snaps, the most of his Ohio State career to date, while completing 8-of-11 passing attempts for 103 yards and a touchdown.

Hoak checked in at quarterback for the Buckeyes’ final three possessions in the fourth quarter and played 17 snaps, also the most of his Ohio State career to date, and completed both of his passing attempts for 19 combined yards.
