The Idaho football team’s homecoming winning streak came to an end Saturday with a 34-13 loss to Troy.
“Overall, it was a very disappointing day, we didn’t play as well as we needed to play,” Idaho head coach Paul Petrino said after the game. “We won’t beat anybody playing like we did today.”
The Vandals began the game with a patient offensive attack. Idaho relied on junior running back Aaron Duckworth during the first drive. The Vandals settled for a field goal after junior quarterback Matt Linehan failed to connect with senior tight end Deon Watson.
On the Trojan’s first play from scrimmage, Troy tailback Jordan Chunn tried to force his way up the middle.
