Idaho State @ UC Davis the coaches chose Pinnick because he was the best quarterback in the preseason. He has proven he can lead an extremely explosive offense. If his only issue is missing a check down sometimes, then they obviously chose correctly. He’s an inexperienced QB with a horribly injured defense and still has us staunchly in playoff contention. Davis will be playing to win every game from here on out, which means we won’t be seeing the 3rd or 5th string QBs at all this year.
