Formed in 2021 for play in the East Division of the Idaho Contact Football League, the Bandits experienced an average debut marked by a 3-game win streak in late April-early May.  The Bandits missed the playoffs, but picked up a June post-season match game with the Summit Valley Kings of Utah, falling to end the season.
 
The slide continued into 2022 opening on a 5-game skid that included back-to-back shellackings by the two top teams in the Mountain West Football League.  North Utah and the Idaho Mustangs each racked up 60+ as the slide extended to 5 games.  The streak ended with a win over Sawtooth, however a Leaders Division playoff round ended with the East Idaho Wolfpack for the second time of the season to finish 2-7.
 
2023 was an up and down affair for the Bandits in the MWFL but a 4-1 stretch run led to an appearance in the league championship game against the undefeated Cache Valley Kodiaks of Utah.  The Bandits could not get the offense on track and dropped their first ever appearance in a title game 22-0.  The 2022 to 2023 turnaround was however, one of the success stories in eastern Idaho football.

2024 found the Bandits chasing the Utah Panthers but an 0-3 start to the season hampered a return to the title game as the Panthers knocked Blackfoot out in the playoff round.  The 2025 team would again chase the Panthers however the regular season match-up foretold the championship game match up as the scores were nearly identical as the 19-remaining Bandits that made the trip fell again 32-6.
