Should be a great game, picking Vandals because of Jason Eck. Idaho by one score.
Stats very close, heart will reign victorious in this one. Turnovers skewed as three of those Lion turnovers per seasonal stats were one game. Lions been protecting the ball this season. Clean up the penalties and Lions win.. Vandalism is against the law in Strawberry Stadium....

Taking Idaho in this one.
On paper, these are two very evenly matched teams.Originally Posted by caribbeanhen

Agree
but beware of the real McCoy and his leaping WR Hayden Hatten
Idaho's results on the road so far this season.
Lost to FBS Washington State 24-17
Lost to FBS Indiana 35-22 (Up 10-0 at the half)
Beat NAU 27-10 (For comparison, in NAU's other home games they lost by 3 to North Dakota, 3 to Montana State, and 2 to Weber State)
Beat Montana 30-23 (Montana's lone home loss)
Lost to Sac State 31-28 (Led 28-24 with 2 minutes to play)
Beat Idaho State 38-7
Safe to say they're road tested. However, Big Sky teams SUCK on the road in the first round of the playoffs. So it could go either way. The thing going against SELA is they haven't played a team with a pulse since their very impressive drubbing of Jacksonville State on October 22nd. Combined record of opponents since is 12-32. The thing going against Idaho is they struggled mightily against the run in their two FCS losses. SELA barreled for over 2000 yards on the ground this year. Should be a battle.
