No. 19 California (1-0) at Washington (0-1) 3:30 pm EDT

SEATTLE (Ticker) - Tyrone Willingham is still looking for his first victory as Washington coach. If form holds, he'll get it this week.

After a disappointing debut against Air Force, Willingham and the Huskies open their Pac-10 Conference schedule against No. 19 California on Saturday.

Willingham's debut was spoiled by Shaun Carney's one-yard touchdown run with 34 seconds remaining that capped a fourth-quarter rally as Air Force posted a 20-17 victory over Washington in the season opener for both teams.

The Huskies have lost seven in a row overall and eight straight Pac-10 games. However, Willingham was 7-0 against Cal when he coached at Stanford from 1995-2001.

Last week, Washington's Isaiah Stanback completed 19-of-27 passes for 242 yards and Louis Rankin ran for 112 for the Huskies, who were outgained, 425-371.

California has a great player in Marshawn Lynch but is still searching for a quarterback after its season opener.

A sophomore star in the making, Lynch ran 24 times for a career-high 147 yards and a touchdown as the Bears pulled away from Division I-AA Sacramento State, 41-3.

True freshman DeSean Jackson caught a pass for a touchdown and ran back a punt for a score for Cal (1-0), which had to replace quarterback Aaron Rodgers, a first-round draft pick by the Green Bay Packers.

Redshirt freshman Nate Longshore got the start and completed 8-of-11 passes for 131 yards, a touchdown and an interception. But he broke his left ankle with two minutes left in the first half and is expected to miss the rest of the regular season.

The battle to replace Longshore is up for grabs between junior college transfer Joe Ayoob and junior Steve Levy. Ayoob failed to complete any of his 10 passes last week. Levy connected on a 46-yard touchdown pass to Noah Smith but was just 2-of-7 for 52 yards.

Washington leads the series, 46-35-4, but Cal has won the last three meetings. Before the Bears began their recent streak, the Huskies had won 19 in a row.
