Washington defeated UC Davis 70–10 in a dominant performance. Washington covered by 30.5; Game went Over by 25.5. The market closed at Washington -29.5 and the Blue Chip model made it Washington -37.2 - a gap of 7.7 points toward Washington, of which 6.9 points were beyond the model's measured factors. That was an information gap - the market pricing something the model does not carry - rather than a measured edge.
UC Davis allowed 324 rushing yards and 7 rushing touchdowns, including 5 by Jonah Coleman, indicating a major weakness in run defense that must be addressed before facing Southern Utah.
The Aggies managed a 45-yard field goal and a 1-yard touchdown pass, showing some offensive capability but overall were outmatched, scoring only 10 points.
Defensive back Rex Connors became the program's all-time leader in career tackles with his eighth tackle of the game, highlighting individual defensive performance despite team struggles.
With only 10 points scored, UC Davis must find ways to sustain drives and finish in the red zone to compete in upcoming games, especially against Southern Utah.
