With great confidence in themselves as a result of the successful tour the Vandals returned home to open the conference season on January 14 against the University of Montana. Defeating the Grizzlies with ease Idaho battled through the long schedule and losing but three games, ended in a tie with Washington for second place in the northern division of the Pacific Coast conference.
