After two consecutive wins in the series, Idaho lost to Washington State in the Battle of the Palouse, falling 0–3 at Rogers Field in Pullman. The weather was ideal but the only score was a drop-kick field goal in the second quarter.

Idaho tallied a mere twelve points in its six games. In the opener, they scored on a field goal and a safety on a punt return, [1] [2] [3] then went scoreless in the next four games. The sole Idaho touchdown came in the final game on a forward pass for the game's only score. [6] [7]

It was Griffith's final year as head coach; he left for Oklahoma A&M (now Oklahoma State) in Stillwater.
