SEATTLE (AP) — Enough with the cupcakes and empty calories. After gorging on weak opponents for three weeks, No. 7 Washington gets its first real test when it travels to Colorado for Saturday’s rematch of the Pac-12 title game from last season. It’s the second straight year in which the non-conference schedule for Washington has left the Huskies looking good and proving little.

You can hear Saturday’s game at Colorado on KBAY 98.9FM & 930AM at 7:00pm.
