There weren’t any big surprises in regards to which Ohio State players saw the field in the Cotton Bowl.
Outside of the cornerback position, where Denzel Ward’s decision to sit out opened the door for true freshman Jeffrey Okudah to see his most substantial playing time of the year, the Buckeyes largely stuck with their regular rotations in their final game of the season. A total of 58 players took snaps for Ohio State in Friday’s 24-7 win over USC, with 17 Buckeyes playing on offense, 22 Buckeyes playing on defense and another 19 playing on special teams only.
What we can do now, though, is look back on the cumulative snap counts for the 2017 season now that every one of Ohio State’s games for the year have been played.
A total of 86 Buckeyes saw the field for at least one snap in some capacity this season, including 22 players – 11 on each side of the ball – who played at least 500 snaps on offense or defense.
Left guard Michael Jordan led the entire team with 925 snaps played this season, though fellow offensive lineman Isaiah Prince finished just one snap behind him. Fellow offensive lineman Jamarco Jones also topped the 900-snap mark, while center Billy Price played exactly 900; quarterback J.T. Barrett finishes his final season at Ohio State with 878 snaps played, while safety Damon Webb led all Buckeyes on defense with 870 snaps played.
Following our look at how many snaps the Buckeyes played on offense and defense and who made up each special teams unit in their final game of the season against the Trojans, you can see how many snaps each Buckeye played in every game this season in our snap trackers at the bottom of the story.
Author’s note: All snap counts listed in this article were tracked by Eleven Warriors through film review and should be considered unofficial, as Ohio State does not release its official snap counts. The players listed with each special teams unit are the players who were on the field with those units most frequently, but exact special teams snap counts are not included because it is not always possible to identify all 11 players on a special teams unit from TV camera angles.
Quarterbacks
J.T. Barrett: 56 snaps
As expected, Barrett played every offensive snap in his final game as a Buckeye. For the season as a whole, Barrett took 81.9 percent of the Buckeyes’ total offensive snaps at quarterback, including every snap in games that remained competitive with the exception of the Michigan game, when he exited in the third quarter due to injury and Dwayne Haskins filled in.
Running Backs
J.K. Dobbins: 33
Mike Weber: 25
Antonio Williams: Special teams only
Dobbins started every game for Ohio State as a true freshman and finished the season with 576 snaps played, the most by far among Buckeyes true freshmen this year.
Weber’s snaps took a big hit this season as a result, as he finished the year with only 320 snaps played on offense. That said, his 25 snaps in the season finale tied his highest snap count for a game played in November or later this year, as the two running backs split snaps about evenly against the Trojans, though Dobbins did have 13 carries to Weber’s five.
Fullbacks
Zach Turnure: Special teams only
While Turnure played only 15 snaps in three games on offense this season after making the switch from linebacker to fullback, he was a regular for the Buckeyes on multiple special teams units, playing every game in his senior season in that capacity.
Wide Receivers
Terry McLaurin: 32
Austin Mack: 31
Parris Campbell: 29
Johnnie Dixon: 24
Binjimen Victor: 24
K.J. Hill: 23
C.J. Saunders: 2
Elijaah Goins: Special teams only
As was the case all season, each of Ohio State’s top six wide receivers rotated in and out of the lineup regularly against USC, though the receiver who played the most snaps for the season as a whole – Hill – actually played the least snaps among those six against the Trojans. That occurred in part because Hill suffered an injury on a muffed punt return in the second quarter, which led to Saunders playing a pair of snaps in the rotation late in the second quarter before Hill returned to the game for the second half.
Tight Ends
Marcus Baugh: 51
Rashod Berry: 6
While Berry was on the field for each of Ohio State’s final four offensive snaps, he had played just two snaps at tight end in Friday’s game before that – both on a first-quarter offensive series that went 12 plays – as the Buckeyes stuck with Baugh, their senior starter at the position, to play the lion’s share of the snaps in his final game.
Although Berry started to earn more regular playing time around the middle of the season of the Buckeyes, his opportunities waned down the stretch, as he played only five or six offensive snaps in each of Ohio State’s final three games.
Offensive Linemen
Jamarco Jones: 56
Michael Jordan: 56
Demetrius Knox: 56
Billy Price: 56
Isaiah Prince: 56
Matthew Burrell: Special teams only
Thayer Munford: Special teams only
Malcolm Pridgeon: Special teams only
Brady Taylor: Special teams only
Kevin Woidke: Special teams only
Each of Ohio State’s regular starting five up front (not including Branden Bowen, who suffered a season-ending injury against Maryland) played every snap on the Buckeyes’ offensive line in their final game of the season; Jones took every snap at left tackle with Jordan at left guard, Price at center, Knox at right guard and Prince at right tackle.
Michael Jordan led all Ohio State players in total offensive or defensive snaps this season.
Defensive Ends
Sam Hubbard: 60
Tyquan Lewis: 60
Nick Bosa: 58
Jalyn Holmes: 56
Chase Young: 8
Jonathon Cooper: 2
For the first and only time during the 2017 season, all of Ohio State’s top four defensive ends played more than 50 snaps in Friday’s game, as the Buckeyes used nickel packages with four defensive ends on the field for nearly half (40 of 82) of their total defensive snaps in Friday’s game. That moved Hubbard, Lewis, Bosa and Holmes all over 520 snaps played for the season.
Young and Cooper – expected to be key players in Ohio State’s 2018 defensive end rotation with Hubbard, Lewis and Holmes on their way out – also saw occasional playing time in the Rushmen package on Friday, with each of Cooper’s snaps coming on the Buckeyes’ final defensive series.
Defensive Tackles
Jashon Cornell: 24
Tracy Sprinkle: 19
Robert Landers: 16
Dre’Mont Jones: 12
Michael Hill: 9
Davon Hamilton: 7
Jones, who played the most snaps among Ohio State’s defensive tackles this season, suffered an injury in the first half and did not play in the second half of Friday’s game. Cornell took most of the snaps in his place at 3-technique defensive tackle, though Hamilton also saw his share. With Sprinkle, Landers and Hill all rotating at the nose tackle position, Cornell led all Buckeyes defensive tackles in snaps played as a result.
Linebackers
Jerome Baker: 82
Tuf Borland: 42
Chris Worley: 42
Malik Harrison: 37
Baron Browning: Special teams only
Justin Hilliard: Special teams only
Keandre Jones: Special teams only
Pete Werner: Special teams only
A mainstay on Ohio State’s defense this season with the exception of the one game he missed due to injury, Baker played every one of the Buckeyes’ defensive snaps against USC. Borland and Worley played every snap in the Buckeyes’ base 4-3 defense, while Harrison played every snap in the nickel defense, with the exception of three plays where the Buckeyes used five defensive linemen and Baker was the only linebacker on the field.
Dante Booker, who began the season as the Buckeyes’ starting strongside linebacker, did not play a single snap for a fifth consecutive game to end the season.
Cornerbacks
Kendall Sheffield: 81
Jeffrey Okudah: 62
Damon Arnette: 59
Amir Riep: Special teams only
Marcus Williamson: Special teams only
With Ward’s decision to sit out the Cotton Bowl and preserve his stock for the 2018 NFL draft, Sheffield assumed the role of Ohio State’s No. 1 cornerback against USC, playing every one of the Buckeyes’ defensive snap except for their final defensive snap, when he left the game with a cramp.
Although Arnette started the game opposite Sheffield and played most of the Buckeyes’ snaps in the base defense in the first half, Okudah played ahead of Arnette for most of the second half. Both cornerbacks were on the field more often than not, though, because of the Buckeyes’ heavy usage of their nickel defense in Friday’s game.
In Denzel Ward's absence, Kendall Sheffield played a season-high 81 snaps in the Cotton Bowl.
Safeties
Jordan Fuller: 82
Damon Webb: 82
Erick Smith: 2
Isaiah Pryor: Special teams only
Fuller and Webb each played every defensive snap of the Buckeyes’ season finale, as Webb finished the year as Ohio State’s leader in defensive snaps while Fuller played the third-most defensive snaps for the Buckeyes this year, behind Webb and Baker. Smith checked in one for one play at safety when Fuller replaced Arnette at slot cornerback, and Smith was also on the field in place of Sheffield for the Buckeyes’ final defensive snap of the game.

Smith was a new addition to the punting unit for the final game of the season, in which he took snaps as both a blocker and as a gunner. Outside of that, the Buckeyes used all players who have been on their punting unit in their previous game, with the exception of Williamson, who was on the field wearing Denzel Ward’s No. 12 jersey (to avoid wearing the same number as Campbell, since both typically wear No. 21) for Ohio State’s final two punts of the game.

After playing with defensive ends Nick Bosa and Sam Hubbard on the field as interior rushers on their punt block unit in previous games, the Buckeyes went with a slightly smaller lineup against USC, still playing one defensive end (Cooper) but playing two linebackers (Hilliard and Werner) instead of a second defensive end. Pryor was also added to the unit lineup in a spot that had previously been occupied by Denzel Ward and Antonio Williams in the Big Ten Championship Game.
