MOSCOW - Idaho senior quarterback Nathan Enderle threw for 210 yards with one touchdown and an interception and the Vandals nearly pitched another shutout before settling for a 30-7 victory over UNLV in nonconference action Saturday night at the Kibbie Dome.

Deonte Jackson opened the scoring on a 1-yard run in the first quarter. The Vandals poured it on as Enderle hit Daniel Hardy on a 17-yard touchdown pass to go up 17-0 in the second quarter.

Jackson added his second touchdown of the night on a 1-yard touchdown run to give Idaho a 24-0 lead at halftime.

Trey Farquhar had field goals of 50, 44 and 27 yards as the Vandals (2-1) built a 30-0 lead with 3:34 remaining in the game.

UNLV (0-3) scored late as Phillip Payne caught a 25-yard pass from Caleb Herring to give the Runnin' Rebels their first points of the game. Idaho nearly posted its second shutout in two home games, having blanked North Dakota 45-0 two weeks ago in the season opener.
