SEATTLE (AP) -- After Jon Embree took over at Colorado, he took a look around his new surroundings to glean examples of how other schools in the Pac-12 went through the rebuilding process.

The two he came back to most: Stanford and Washington.

Embree will get another chance to measure where the Buffaloes (1-5, 0-2) are in his rebuilding plan when they travel to Seattle to face the Huskies (4-1, 2-0) on Saturday.

Embree got a look at Stanford last weekend and a really good indication of how far the Buffaloes still need to climb in a 48-7 loss to the Cardinal that extended Colorado's road losing streak to 20 games.

Meanwhile, a win Saturday will give Washington its first 5-1 start in a decade.
