The 1922 Idaho Vandals football team represented the University of Idaho as a member of the Northwest Conference and the Pacific Coast Conference (PCC) during the 1922 college football season. Led by first-year head coach Robert L. Mathews, the Vandals compiled an overall record of 3–5. Idaho had a record of 2–3 in Northwest Conference play, placing fourth, and 0–4 against PCC opponents, finishing last out of eight teams.[1] The team played only one home game, on campus, at MacLean Field in Moscow, Idaho.

The Vandals dropped an eighth consecutive game to Washington State in the Battle of the Palouse, but it was the only loss to the Cougars under Mathews. Idaho won the next three meetings, their only three-peat in the rivalry series.
