UC Davis tightened its grip on the Pacific Western Conference with a 68-19 defeat of Stanford Saturday.

Stanford went into the game 2-0-1 but were cast aside summarily by the defending DIAA champ Aggies. UC Davis is now 4-0. 

Chico State kept pace somewhat with a 41-19 defeat of previously unbeaten Nevada behind a strong day from debutant Thomas Gust and 14 points from Danny Lalor. 

And Sac State return to .500 ball with a 42-17 defeat of Fresno State, and UC Santa Cruz also won.

It's still a tight fight for the playoff spots, but despite their loss the Nevada Wolfpack can still make a charge. Stanford also remains in the hunt, but Davis has now beaten Chico State and Stanford, and is in the best position to finish 1st.
