Frequently asked questions

Does Pittsburgh publish snap counts?

No. College programs do not release snap counts, and no public source tracks them for every player. Paid services chart some games. This page shows the closest public measure: each player's share of Pittsburgh's offensive plays.

What is share of plays?

The share of the team's offensive plays on which a player threw the ball, ran it or was targeted. Unlike a snap count, it leaves out plays where the player was on the field without the ball, so blockers and defenders are not included.

Who is Pittsburgh's lead running back?

Damon Ferguson Jr. is involved in 17.8% of Pittsburgh's plays and 29.5% of its runs this season.

Who is Pittsburgh's most targeted pass catcher?

Cataurus Hicks (WR) is involved in 16.5% of Pittsburgh's pass plays, the most of any receiver or tight end.
