Do we see Dak the whole game

or will we see a lot of the backups? I'd like to see Dak in 1st Qtr and starting the 3rd Qtr. but otherwise use the backups to get some really good experience and keep Dak healthy for the next level. This game could be used to determine the Qb leader going into the spring.

I think the only way you see Dak come off is if he gets hurt or we are up and they pull him out on like a 2nd or 3rd down late in the game just to get him an ovation.

I just don't understand the infatuation some people have with sitting Dak for significant portions of the bowl game. He is still our quarterback, and he's going to play as long as the game is in any doubt. Fitzgerald may get some snaps in the 4th quarter if the game is out of hand, but that's all. As for the QB leader going into the spring, I don't think there's any question that it's Fitzgerald. But he and Staley will fight it out then.

He needs to get as much playing time as possible so he can try and erase the Tebow comparison in the eyes of the draft folk

I'd just like to see a game reminiscent of the 2010 Gator Bowl against Michigan and the 2013 Liberty Bowl against Rice as compared to all the other bowls in this century. If Dak needs to play the whole game or just the 1st quarter to make that happen, I'm good with that.

Like the Michigan game except for one thing ... don't start off with a 14 point deficit. Just win it from the beginning.

If we're up big time he needs to be taken out with a big standing O. That's how it's supposed to be done.

I would agree with this as long as we have the game in hand. We should beat them handily, but we really need to make certain that we get the win. Need some momentum

Please Please

This guy is more bulldog than anyone we have had in a very long time. He has given his heart to the Dogs and deserves to play until the very end if that is what he wants. Perhaps Dan should ask him in the middle of Q-4 what he wants to do and let him decide.

If we have a decent lead, Dak will probably tell Dan to let Fitzgerald have some of the glory and play in his first bowl game.
