By Idaho Athletics: The rivalry is back.
In a historic announcement at the Idaho state capitol, Governor Brad Little announced that the Idaho Vandals and Boise State Broncos will renew their football rivalry in a game scheduled for Sept. 6, 2031, in Boise.

I am grateful for the work of our staff, led by Tim Mooney, and the cooperation of Bronco Athletics. Thank you to Jeremiah Dickey for working together on this and to President Scott Green and Dr. Jeremiah Shinn at Boise State for helping us finalize this agreement.”
