Doesn't a player count toward the 85 total if they play in games whether they are on scholarship or not?

The 85 limit is on scholarship players only. In theory, you could have 22 starters as walk-ons and none of them would count against your 85 limit.

Nope the 85 number is a scholarship only number and does not include walkons who play in games. 85 on scholarship + 20 preferred walkons = 105 man roster for fall camp. After school starts you can have as many walkons as you want and they are labelled as participants. Some schools routinely have 120+ participants including scholarship players, preferred walkons and others.
