I say rotate extensively because a) cup, and b) the starters haven't exactly been getting it done. Keep a few options on the bench to come in and rescue something if needed. A win gives everyone something positive to build on, rally around the young guys, etc. A loss and it will be a massive wake-up call like we've never seen before, which might be a net positive in the long run.
If last year is any indication, they're slow starters and need time to ramp up, and I'm not sure if a rout of an amateur side will accelerate that at all.
