Breaking down Pro Football Focus' (PFF) snap counts and initial individual player grades — and where each individual ranked on that side of the ball — from the 52-0 shutout win over Rutgers.
Thirty-seven different offensive players logged snaps, with senior quarterback Shea Patterson leading the way with an elite 90.7 grade (nobody else posted higher than an 83.2).
On the other side of the ball, 27 defenders saw action, led by junior defensive end Kwity Paye's 87.5 score. Two of the other top four scores came from defensive linemen in senior defensive tackle Carlo Kemp (82.1) and graduate transfer defensive end Michael Danna (76.8).
