All right ladies and gentlemen, stay tuned to TSN today (saturday) for and amzing football treat. First you get Acadia Axemen against the Wilfrid Laurier Golden Hawks in the Uteck Bowl at 12 et. and then at 3 et (1 pm local) The #2 U of S Huskies vs the #1 Laval Rouge et Or. This game has been predicted since last year's Vanier snooze fest of 7-1. Fear not however, This game will have a lot more action. The game is being played in Saskatoon, and trust me the field isn't in the greatest shape. If you think Commenwealth is bad, this is way worse. So there will most likely be some slips by some defenders, creating some breaks for both offenses to get some points on the board. This will be the first legitimate challenge Laval has faced all year (well Montreal I guess) and it should be a fantastic game. Featured in the game is Last years Hec Crighton nominee QB Steve Bilan, and This years Nominee RB David Stevens all dressed in Green and White. David Stevens has not had a game with less then 120 yds this year. Bilan took a while to adapt to 4 new recievers but he has, and the offence is rockin. Both teams have an awesome Defence, Laval ranked #1wih like 9 pts/game and U of S at #2. w/ 12 pts/game.
Whoever can break the defence will win this game. My bets are on the home team to win. and not just win, but win convincingly.
Lets Go dogs
And ya, watch the game. The more people watch it the more games they will show next year hopefully, and that is good for everyone.
Your lamatrons have beaten the R & O. My congratulations and best regards to you (after all my pre-game insults in the VGCC thread). :oops:
On another subject matter, I have to say it felt weird that that game wasn't played in Quebec. When the defending and undefeated Vanier Cup champ has to play a game on the road in the playoffs, it feels strange. One of the downsides of the CIS playoff system. Note that this is not an excuse, you won fair and square with the rules everybody plays with.
