Football<br />
In 1999 the Vandal football team prepared to defend its Big West title<br />
against a schedule <strong>of</strong> opponents that were not about to overlook the U <strong>of</strong> I.<br />
<strong>Idaho</strong> had it tough from the start, battling big names Washington State,<br />
Auburn and Wyoming. The Vandals triumphed over their regional rival WSU,<br />
but suffered close losses against the other two. The conference schedule<br />
didn't prove to be any easier; the Big West was full <strong>of</strong> talent and each <strong>of</strong><br />
the teams brought all the force they could muster against the Vandals.<br />
<strong>Idaho</strong> ended up 4-2 in the Big West, and missed out on a chance for another<br />
conference title and a repeat bowl appearance after a terrible loss to Boise<br />
St. 1999 also turned out to be the final season for head coach Chris<br />
Tormey, who departs the U <strong>of</strong> I with a 33-23 record. Overall the season was<br />
a success with seven wins and four losses, and the Vandals look forward to<br />
continuing their winning tradition in 2000.<br />
