The 1981 Idaho Vandals football team represented the University of Idaho in the 1981 NCAA Division I-AA football season. The Vandals, led by fourth-year head coach Jerry Davitch, were members of the Big Sky Conference and played their home games at the Kibbie Dome, an indoor facility on campus in Moscow, Idaho. Led by sophomore quarterback Ken Hobart in the veer offense, the Vandals finished 3-8 in the regular season and 0-7 in the Big Sky to finish last. Idaho lost to rival Boise State for the fifth straight year, but it was the Broncos' last win over Idaho until 1994, as the Vandals won a dozen straight in the interim. After a fifth straight loss and no wins in six conference games, Davitch was fired nine days before the final game against Boise State. Several weeks later Dennis Erickson was hired and immediately turned the Vandal program around in 1982, reaching the quarterfinals of the 12-team Division I-AA playoffs. In 1981, Idaho State and Boise State were the top two teams in the Big Sky and both advanced to the 8-team Division I-AA playoffs and won their first round games. Boise State was stopped at home in the semifinals by , whom Idaho State defeated the following week in Texas to win the national title. ==Notable players== Sophomore quarterback Ken Hobart changed from an option quarterback in the veer to a prolific passer under Erickson. He led the Vandals to a 9-4 record in 1982 and an 8-3 record in 1983 as a senior, when he was a Division I-AA All-American. Hobart played a season in the USFL with Jacksonville in 1984 and several in the CFL. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「1981 Idaho Vandals football team」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
