Lynch To Play In Grey Cup
“It’s unreal. It’s been over 30 years (since a Grey Cup berth) and to win in the fashion we did is a testament to this team”.
A power shift in the East can’t be completed without first taking down the Ticats however, the team that’s represented the division in the Grey Cup Championship two years running.
“I was only 10 and I’ll be rooting for the Ottawa team this time”. I just appreciate what this team did.
Hamilton tied the game 28-28 as Jeremiah Masoli, making just his second career playoff start, hit Luke Tasker on a 22-yard scoring strike with 1:34 remaining. “We want to make it happen”.
Whatever Masoli’s long-term prospectus in this league, attention should be paid to a masterful effort.
CFL Eastern final, All in a Day spoke to two superfans from opposing sides: one known as “Mr. Shoebeer” in the Redblacks stands, and another who’s part of Hamilton Ticats’ Box J Boys.
“I know it’s a big deal and I have a lot of respect for it”, Ottawa head coach Rick Campbell said after defeating Hamilton.
Austin would not indulge comparing the gutting ends. He threw to Ellingson, who made the catch with Hamilton defender Ed Gainey falling on the play.
The six-foot-one, 252-pound Norwood had seven sacks, one interception and two fumble returns for touchdowns this season. “I’m not anxious about what that man says”. “But they’re going to kick off so we move on”.
“That driving force to play against Hamilton, it’s still there…” It’s good for them, it’s good for the league.
“Yeah that was a big blow, I’m not going to sugar-coat that”, Steinauer said. “The most important thing is that every player in that room learns from the experience and puts it toward being a better player, a better teammate and a better contributor to the organization”.
“I’ve talked about playing on so many special teams, but this has that special aura”, he said. It led to a five-point swing in the final 90 seconds of the first half. On second-and-11, Underwood caught a short sideline pass short of the sticks and stepped out of bounds untounched, meaning the clock wouldn’t start for the next play until the ball was snapped.
And it was clear that, despite a few outstanding coffin corners, Justin Medlock was struggling with punts in weather conditions. Ottawa has the ball on their own 16 yard line. “We got backed up by a penalty so we’re on the five”.
“Everything we went through previous year, all the naysayers towards Henry Burris they can’t say anything after this”, Burris said.
One could be the reserve quarterback who came up so big Sunday after being demoted to the practice roster for nearly the whole year. “That’s just the way the cards played out”.
“I just appreciate what everyone did today”, Masoli said. So the uplifting Tale of JeremiahMasoli unfortunately gets snowed under by the triumphant Ottawa is Back and, quite frankly, the CFL can grind out more yards on the latter.
Gavins is cleared to play and looking forward to getting back in the lineup.
The Tiger-Cats gave the Redblacks the best they had but in the end, Ottawa’s excellent offence came through when it mattered the most.
“We (defensive line) have been though a lot”, said the burly Laurent, also a Montreal native and Hamilton’s top Canadian award nominee the last two years.
