On Saturday, the Idaho Vandals had a dominating performance against the Idaho State Bengals, winning 63-21. The Vandals were led by quarterback Mason Layne, who threw for six touchdowns in the first half alone. Layne finished the game with an impressive stat line of 25-of-30 passing for 431 yards and six touchdowns. He also added a rushing touchdown to his impressive performance.
The Vandals offense was firing on all cylinders, with four different receivers catching touchdown passes from Layne. Senior wide receiver David Ungerer led the way with seven receptions for 129 yards and two touchdowns. Senior tight end Nick Romano also had a big day, catching four passes for 92 yards and two touchdowns.
The Vandals defense also had a strong performance, limiting the Bengals to just 21 points. Senior linebacker Kaleb Hill led the way with eight tackles and a sack. Senior safety Jordan Grady also had a great game, recording two interceptions and a forced fumble.
The Vandals have now won three straight games and are looking to continue their winning streak next week against Montana State. With Mason Layne playing at an elite level, the Vandals have a good chance to keep their winning streak alive. If they can continue to get strong performances from their offense and defense, they could be in for a special season.
