SEATTLE - Although an Aggie win would have been an upset of historic proportions, that dream vanished quickly as the University of Washington led from start to finish to overwhelm UC Davis, 70-10, before a raucous crowd of 65,421 Saturday night in Husky Stadium.

"We're not a pat on the back kind of team, and we're not happy with this result," said Aggie head coach Tim Plough.

"There are no excuses. I thought we could have played better. We continue to make mental errors that hold us back and we have to clean those things up. When you look at that score, it doesn't feel good, but that's a great Washington team and they're going to do great things this year."

The 60-point loss was the largest in UC Davis history, eclipsing a 52-3 setback to Cal in 2010.

UCD is now 1-1, while Washington moves to 2-0. This was the first-ever meeting between the two.
