Here's the latest info on the CFL last weekend:
Saskatchewan 30 Montreal 24
Saskatchewan took a 24-3 halftime lead and held
on to win their fourth game in a row. The
Roughriders were led by QB Joe Paopao who completed
25 of 32 passes for 277 yards and two touchdowns.
The winning streak is Saskatchewan's longest
since 1976.
Toronto 21 B.C. 21
B.C.'s Roy Dewalt threw 9 yards to Ron Robinson
with 1:35 left in the game to tie the score, but
the next time he touched the ball, he broke a
collarbone (or had it broke for him), and will
be gone for the rest of the season. Dewalt
was 26 of 50 for 330 yards, while Toronto was
led by QB Joe Barnes, who was 24-39 for 379 yards,
and Terry Greer, who caught 8 passes for 184 yards.
Edmonton 28 Hamilton 21
QB Matt Dunigan rushed for 138 yards and two
touchdowns, including a draw play for a 69 yard TD,
to keep Edmonton in third place, one point ahead
of Saskatchewan. Hamilton QB Dieter Brock completed
22 of 42 passes for 320 yards, but no touchdowns.
Winnipeg 46 Calgary 8
Winnipeg QB Tom Clements was 20-27 for 369 yards and
four touchdowns, and running back Willard Reaves rushed
for 118 yards to up his league-leading total to 1585 yards,
a new Winnipeg record, to lead Winnipeg over the last-place
Stampeders. The old Bomber rushing record was 1527 yards,
set by Mack Herron ('member him?) in 1972.
