The 1992 Idaho Vandals football team represented the University of Idaho in the 1993 NCAA Division I-AA football season. The Vandals, led by fourth-year head coach John L. Smith, were members of the Big Sky Conference and played their home games at the Kibbie Dome, an indoor facility on campus in Moscow, Idaho.

Led by junior quarterback Doug Nussmeier, Idaho finished the regular season at 9–2 and 6–1 in the Big Sky. The Vandals were co-champions with Eastern Washington, whom they defeated 38–21 in Cheney in mid-October. Idaho began the season at ninth in the I-AA poll and won its first six games, including a win at Division I-A Colorado State of the WAC. After the win at EWU, they climbed to second in the rankings.

Five days later, Idaho lost by one point at top-ranked Northern Iowa, then lost the Little Brown Stein at home to unranked Montana two weeks later. In the regular season finale with rival Boise State, the Vandals won for the eleventh consecutive year, 62–16, for their sixth straight victory at Bronco Stadium.
