Washington 42, BYU 20
PROVO, Utah (AP) -- For Washington's Rashaan Shehee, it was second verse, same as the first --
and the nation's longest current winning streak came to an end at Brigham Young.
Shehee rambled for 171 yards and a touchdown and caught a pass for another as the No. 4 Huskies
routed the 19th-ranked Cougars 42-20 Saturday in the opener for both teams. The senior tailback had
two TDs in Washington's 29-17 win over BYU a year ago in Seattle, the last time the Cougars lost.
``I want to have a big play every play,'' Shehee said. ``I think big plays.''
So, apparently, does Brock Huard, who hit 18-of-23 passes for 285 yards and three scores as
Washington of the Pac-10 snapped BYU's 12-game win streak. The last time the defending Western
Athletic Conference champion Cougars lost at home was November 1995 against Utah.
``It's nice when you have confidence in everyone around you,'' he said. ``I love putting the ball in the
air and letting my fine athletes make plays.''
Jerome Pathon caught seven passes for 163 yards for the Huskies, who now have beaten BYU three
straight.
Leading 21-7 at halftime, the Huskies poured it on after the break. Maurice Shaw got his second
touchdown on a 2-yard run that followed Shehee's 75-yard sprint.
``It was pretty much just a zone-blocking play. I just went behind (All-American guard Benji Olson
and center Olin Kreutz) and they took me to the promised land,'' Shehee said.
BYU quarterback Kevin Feterik, replacing ineffective starter Paul Shoemaker, fumbled on the next
series to put Washington at the Cougars 41. Two plays later, Shehee tucked away a 23-yard toss
from Huard for a 35-7 lead just under five minutes into the second half.
At that, BYU fans didn't have to watch the tally mount: Cougar Stadium's scoreboards went blank at
halftime and stayed that way until 10:25 remained in the fourth quarter.
``There is not a whole lot to say,'' said BYU coach LaVell Edwards. ``We've got a lot of work to do.
``They didn't do anything differently than we had planned on, it was just our inexperience.''
Feterik closed out the game with two touchdown passes against Washington reserves, first hitting
Aaron Roderick for 62 yards and then Ben Cahoon on a 34-yarder.
Huard's 27-yarder to Fred Coleman accounted for the last Washington TD.
It was 7-7 after one quarter, with Shoemaker and Shaw swapping 1-yard touchdown runs. After a
series of defensive stands by both teams, Washington finally moved ahead 2:43 before the break on
Shehee's 2-yard slant, set up by Coleman's 24-yard reception.
BYU was forced to punt after three downs, only to see Pathon break loose for 40 yards on the return.
Pathon's 35-yard reception two plays later got the Huskies close to the goal line, setting up Coleman's
6-yard catch for a 21-7 lead at halftime.
Feterik finished 13-of-20 for 216 yards, with Cahoon leading BYU receivers with six catches for 106
yards.
Overall, however, Washington's dominance was readily apparent, the Huskies racking up 577 yards to
BYU's 308. The Cougars managed just 2 rushing yards to Washington's 289.
