A native of Oklahoma and a World War II veteran, Andros played college football as a guard at the University of Oklahoma.

Andros became a head coach at age 37 at Idaho in February 1962.

He took over in Moscow for Skip Stahley, who stepped down after eight seasons and remained as athletic director.

Andros' starting annual salary was just under $12,500.

The 1962 team was 2–6–1, but the following year he led Idaho to its first winning season (5–4) in a quarter century.

One of his first-year hires at Idaho in 1962 was alumnus Bud Riley (1925–2012), then the head coach and athletic director at Lewiston High School, 30 mi south of Moscow.

1963

The tenth and final game in 1963 at Arizona State on November 23 was canceled, following the assassination of President Kennedy.

While Idaho had been a driving force in the founding of the Big Sky Conference in 1963, it was primarily to alleviate basketball scheduling and the Vandals remained an independent for football through 1964 under Andros.

Only one conference foe was played during the first two Big Sky seasons, a 1963 game with Idaho State that was previously scheduled.

1964

The Vandals won their opener in 1964, but then lost four straight, the latter two were close ones to Oregon and Oregon State.

The 10–7 loss to the Rose Bowl-bound Beavers in Corvallis came by a late third quarter OSU punt return.

The Vandals rebounded and the next week won the Battle of the Palouse for the first time in a decade, defeating neighbor Washington State 28–13.

The Cougars were led by first-year head coach Bert Clark, a former Sooner teammate; the Vandals split the final four games to finish at 4–6.

Andros was hired as the head coach at Oregon State in February 1965.

He replaced the legendary Tommy Prothro, who left after ten seasons in Corvallis for UCLA, just ten days after leading the Beavers in the Rose Bowl.

Andros compiled a .440 record in eleven seasons at OSU.

In the Civil War games against the Oregon Ducks, he won his first seven and split the last four, for an overall record of .810.

He was also 2–0 against his former team, beating the Idaho Vandals by two in Boise in 1965 and by seven in Corvallis in 1966.

1966

Andros was nicknamed "The Great Pumpkin" for his bright orange jacket and large physical size, first dubbed by a Spokane sports columnist during the 41–13 homecoming rout of WSU in Pullman on Halloween weekend in 1966.

It was his first game on the Palouse since he left Idaho; his last Palouse game as Vandal head two years earlier was also a win over the Cougars, 28–13.

1973

Idaho was in the University Division, while the other Big Sky members were in the College Division (which became Division II in 1973) for football.

1975

As OSU head coach, Andros was 8–3 against Washington State and split the first ten games with Washington while headed by former Oklahoma teammate Jim Owens; Oregon State was beaten 35–7 by the Huskies in Seattle in 1975, Don James' first season at UW and Andros' last in coaching.
