MOSCOW, Idaho- Idaho football scored the first 20 points of the game, but Appalachian State answered with 23 straight in the final 23 minutes Saturday, as the Mountaineers rallied for a 23-20 victory at the Kibbie Dome. The Vandals (2-4, 1-2 Sun Belt) led 17-0 at halftime, but were held to 57 yards of total offense in the second half.

The Mountaineers (4-2, 3-0 Sun Belt) took their first lead of the game at 23-20 on a 31-yard field goal with 7:24 remaining.

Idaho had the ball in the red zone with under four minutes to play, but a third-down fumble ended the scoring threat.
