Football: A rivalry reborn

Rivalry week seems to have arrived for the Vandals.

Idaho football is set to travel back to Pocatello for the first time since 1997 to rekindle the rivalry against the Idaho State Bengals.

Idaho State comes off a big win against Northern Arizona to make the Bengals 2-0 in Big Sky play, giving them a huge boost of confidence coming into this week’s game.

The Vandals come off a dominant win against Port- land State to get their first Big Sky victory. Now, Idaho looks to take down the in-state rivals on Saturday.

Idaho Head Coach Paul Petrino said he understands the magnitude that comes with the Battle of the Domes rivalry.
