Historical context between Oregon and Idaho

The Oregon vs. Idaho series goes back to 1901 and it’s one of the longest-standing matchups in Oregon football history. But along with that, this is one of the most heavily lopsided series in Oregon football history. The Ducks own a commanding 52-3-4 record against the Vandals and the last win for Idaho was all the way back in 1950.
