MOSCOW, Idaho – They couldn’t be sure until the final 11 seconds. But once Brockeith Pane’s jumper sailed into the stands, ending a tumultuous shooting night for Utah State, Idaho fans unleashed a deafening roar.

Playing on national television against the WAC’s powerhouse men’s basketball program, the Vandals sprang a 64-56 upset of the 21st-ranked Aggies in front of 1,512 on Wednesday night.

The loss snapped USU’s 17-game winning streak. The Aggies (22-3, 11-1) had won a conference-record 25 consecutive regular-season WAC games dating back to Jan. 4 of last year. More here. Josh Wright, SR

Big win for the Vandals!
