Last season Idaho had very little to prove- fans didn’t expect much of the team after several losing seasons. Yet when they finished with an 9-4 record and a monster win in the Famous Idaho Potato Bowl, Idaho proved it could be the team fans had been wanting and waiting for.
So, this season the Vandals did have something to prove. Idaho had to live up to the standards they set last season and even go beyond. The team raised the bar last season, so why not make it the team motto for this season?
It was clear they could do it, but it took a while to see the team that fans came to expect.
