The 1929 Idaho Vandals football team represented the University of Idaho in the 1929 college football season. The Vandals were led by first-year head coach Leo Calland and were in their eighth season in the Pacific Coast Conference. Home games were played on campus in Moscow at MacLean Field. Idaho compiled a 4–5 overall record and went 1–4 in conference games.

Calland was previously a USC assistant coach and a former player for the Trojans,^[1]^[2] a guard and captain as a senior on the 1922 team that won the Rose Bowl. Raised in Seattle, he was also the head coach of the USC basketball team for two seasons.^[3]^[4]

In the Battle of the Palouse with neighbor Washington State, the Cougars won for the second straight year,^[5]^[6] their first at home in Pullman in eight years.

The Vandals finished the season with a two-game road trip to Los Angeles and Pocatello in southeastern Idaho. Calland's return to USC was harsh, with a 72-point shutout by the Trojans to extend the season's losing streak to five games.^[7] The final game on Thanksgiving was a 41–7 win over the Tigers of the university's Southern Branch,^[8] today's Idaho State University, but then a two-year school.
