Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Use mdy dates Шаблон:Infobox college sports team season Шаблон:1971 Big Sky Conference football standings The 1971 Idaho Vandals football team represented the University of Idaho as a member of the Big Sky Conference during the 1971 NCAA University Division football season. Lled by second-year head coach Don Robbins, the Vandals played the final three of their five home games at the new Idaho Stadium, an outdoor facility on campus in Moscow, Idaho.

The Vandals won their first outright conference title in 1971, which included an eight-game winning streak after opening with two losses. Idaho finished Шаблон:Nowrap in the regular season and Шаблон:Nowrap in the Big Sky. At the time, it was the best record in Шаблон:Nowrap

Notable games

A third consecutive season opened without a home field, as the new Idaho Stadium was not quite finished and there was no suitable venue available on the Palouse.[1][2] After the wooden Neale Stadium (1937) was condemned in August 1969, the Vandals played their limited schedule of Palouse home games at the wooden Rogers Field at WSU in nearby Pullman in 1969 and 1970.[3] The primary (south) grandstand of Rogers burned in Шаблон:Nowrap and was razed in 1971; in its footprint Martin Stadium was constructed and opened in Шаблон:Nowrap

The Vandals' season opener was a stunning 14–42 upset loss at Boise State in the first meeting between the two teams, creating an instant Шаблон:Nowrap This was actually an Idaho "home game" moved south Шаблон:Nowrap because the new stadium in Moscow was behind schedule and Шаблон:Nowrap Boise State had been a junior college program through 1967, moved up to NAIA in 1968 as an independent, and joined the NCAA "college division" (Division II) and Big Sky Шаблон:Nowrap Шаблон:Nowrap played a home game every season in Boise in the old wooden Bronco Stadium through 1968; this ended when Boise State joined Шаблон:Nowrap

The Colorado State game on Шаблон:Nowrap was played at Joe Albi Stadium in Шаблон:Nowrap Шаблон:Nowrap shut out the CSU Rams Шаблон:Nowrap to begin their eight-game winning streak;[4] the Rams' star running back was Шаблон:Nowrap who was selected for multiple Pro Bowls while with the Шаблон:Nowrap

After four consecutive road victories,[6] the Vandals finished the 1971 season at home with a 40–2 victory over Montana State to wrap up the Big Sky title, and a disappointing Шаблон:Nowrap non-conference loss to Utah State in the finale.[7][8][9] Boise State finished Шаблон:Nowrap with a postseason win, but its two losses were in league play and finished second in the Big Sky Шаблон:Nowrap

Division I

Although a charter member of a conference whose other members were "college division" (Division II) for football, Idaho maintained its status as a "university division" (Division I) program with the NCAA by playing only "university division" opponents in its non-conference Шаблон:Nowrap That is why runner-up Boise State went to the Camellia Bowl in 1971,[10] and when the Division II playoffs arrived in 1973, the Vandals were again ineligible, as they were in Division I. (Idaho was a member of the conference primarily for basketball, in Division I.)

The Big Sky moved up to the new Division I-AA in 1978, and Idaho was forced to move down. In 18 seasons in I-AA, the Vandals reached the post-season playoffs 11 times, missing only once in the final 11 seasons Шаблон:Nowrap

Idaho returned to Division I-A in 1996 with a move to the Big West, and then to the WAC in 2005. (The Big West dropped football after 2000; Idaho was a "football only" member of the Sun Belt for four seasons, Шаблон:Nowrap The WAC dropped football after the 2012 season and Idaho athletics rejoined the Big Sky in 2013 for all sports except football, which was independent in 2013, rejoined the Sun Belt in 2014, and the Big Sky (FCS) Шаблон:Nowrap

Linehan's selection was his third consecutive, and he was also named the team's most valuable player.[16] Three weeks after the season ended, he received a gunshot wound to his left side;[17] he spent less than two days at Gritman hospital and was released.[18][19] His younger brothers were also starters for the Vandals: Rick was the strong safety in the late 1970s and Scott was the quarterback in the mid-1980s.
