Vandals’ long season ends today

The Idaho basketball team was up six early in the second half before succumbing to unbeaten — and perhaps soon-to-be ranked — New Mexico at The Pit last night. On the football field, meanwhile, the Vandals face an even bigger challenge at No. 25 Utah State (our preview is here ). Kickoff is 12:05 PST, and as soon as the game ends, you can bet speculation about the next Idaho head coach will go into overdrive. We’ll have updates here on the blog and on Twitter: @SR_JoshWright .
