Washington 38, No. 19 Boise State 6: Keith Price passed for 324 yards and two touchdowns and Bishop Sankey rushed for 161 yards and two scores as the host Huskies pounded the Broncos in the season opener for both teams.

Price threw third-quarter touchdown passes to Kasen Williams and Joshua Perkins as Washington turned a four-point lead into a rout. Sankey scored on a first-quarter run and added a final-quarter scamper as Washington handed Boise State its worst loss in Chris Petersen’s eight seasons as coach.

Travis Coons kicked a 30-yard field with 10:21 left in the first half and Boise State finally got on the board with Dan Goodale’s 37-yard field goal 2:31 before halftime.

Goodale booted a 20-yard field goal with 9:37 left in the third quarter to pull the Broncos within 10-6 before Price hit Williams on a 19-yard scoring aerial and Perkins on an 18-yarder to make it an 18-point margin with 1:34 left in the stanza.
