Apple Cup loss is a double dose of frustration for the Dawgs

Huskies Closeup
WHAT HAPPENED SATURDAY: The Huskies never trailed in regulation, and actually had the Cougars down three points and on their own 20 with 56 seconds to play.

The team also holds the dishonor of having the nation's longest losing streak at 13 games.
