Last weekend, the Idaho Vandals won their final FBS game against Georgia State.
Next year, the Vandals are leaving the Sun Belt, and the FBS altogether, as the Sun Belt decided to move on from the Vandals in hopes of creating a more geographical friendly conference. Rather than become a Group of Five Independent like UMass and New Mexico State, Idaho decided to join the Big Sky conference and become an FCS program.
It’s been a strange run for the Vandals in the FBS. Since going FBS (I-A at the time), and joining the Big West conference in 1996, they’ve been to only three bowls, or more accurately, they’ve been to a bowl three times, as it was the same bowl each time (the Humanitarian Bowl, later the Famous Idaho Potato Bowl).
