Louisiana Tech (5-1, 2-0) won its fifth consecutive game Saturday night by defeating UMass (1-6) by a score of 69-21.
In a game that saw the Bulldogs pile up 687 yards of total offense, plenty of players had an opportunity to get in on the action.
In fact, 73 players played for Tech in the win.
Let's take a look at the snap count distribution. Up first, the offense. Tech ran 75 offense plays in the win.
In total, 41 players saw action on the offensive side of the ball for the Bulldogs against UMass.
Malik Stanley made the start at inside WR for Griffin Hebert.
Israel Tucker returned to the lineup for Tech for the first time since the Grambling win in early September.
Jaqwis Dancy was limited throughout the week in practice and only saw five snaps.
Skip Holtz played all four of his scholarship quarterbacks in J'Mar Smith, Westin Elliott, Aaron Allen, and Jakson Thomson Saturday night. It was Thomson's first action in his Bulldog career.
Let's now shift to the defensive side. UMass ran 85 plays in the game.
Limiting some of the snap counts for the defensive lineman has been goal and Tech was able to do that Saturday night. Williams and Mason only saw 46 snaps while Wallace saw even fewer with 40.
Bee Jay Williamson saw 44 snaps and played the best game of his Bulldog career.
Kevin Murphy, in his second game back from injury, saw 30 snaps. This is an important development going forward. Murphy will provide valuable snaps throughout the remainder of the season behind Mason at defensive end.
