Idaho Vandals football team is set to face Montana State Bobcats, the No. 1 team in the country, on Friday at the P1FCU Kibbie Dome.

Both offensive coordinator Ian Shoemaker and defensive coordinator Lee Stalker highlighted the importance of recovering physically and mentally and getting scheme stuff in.
