PREVIEW: The Vandals took down the Bengals of Idaho State on Thursday, 69-61.

After a quick run by the Bengals cut the Vandal lead to just five midway through the half, Sanders scored nine straight by himself over a 94-second stretch, ballooning Idaho's lead to 14 points. Idaho State would fight its way back into things, but the Vandals controlled the game in the end to get the win.
Weber State has dropped two straight, including an 82-72 loss at Eastern Washington on Thursday. The Wildcats have a tough road remaining this season, taking on the three teams that are currently tied for fourth in the Big Sky standings.
LAST MEETING: Idaho fell on the road, 91-66. Weber State came out firing and couldn't seem to miss, while the Vandals hit a rough patch shooting.
The teams met only once during the 2015-16 season, with Idaho winning in Moscow, 62-58.
