Day after dominating awards, Stampeders aren’t taking Ottawa lightly
The Redblacks also removed from the roster tailback Mossis Madu, who injured his right shoulder early in last weekend’s game against the Eskimos, and left off kicker Chris Milo, who hasn’t played since injuring himself in the warmup before an October 29 regular-season contest at Winnipeg. He averaged a solid 5.8 yards per attempt and also ran for 11 TDs in capturing the top Canadian for the second time (2011).
Calgary Stampeders head coach Dave Dickenson speaks to his players after during western Conference practice ahead of the 104th CFL Grey Cup against the Ottawa Redblacks in Toronto on Friday. Seeming not to notice the snowstorm around him, Lafrance rushed for 157 yards, including the game’s final touchdown that killed any hopes of a Calgary comeback. His high school teams won two state title games, he led the Bison to three Division I FCS national championships and now he’s adding a second Grey Cup game to his resume.
There are many exciting events across the city leading up to Sunday night’s showdown between the Calgary Stampeders and Ottawa Redblacks.
Campbell said having been at the championship game past year has helped his team. “There’s plenty of historical evidence of upsets in the Grey Cup”. Obviously we have confidence in the guys who are going to be starting.. Because honestly, the wins, the records, the awards don’t mean squat. He led the Stampeders to a 20-16 win over Hamilton in 2014 and learned a valuable lesson in the process. “I wanted to see every single piece of film, every single footstep that somebody took”.
Half an hour after that, the commissioner held a question and answer session with fans where he fielded similar questions about the lack of Grey Cup buzz in Toronto, poor officiating, and concussions. He played for the Montreal team that entered the 2000 Grey Cup as a heavy favourite but lost to a B.C. squad that won just eight games in the regular season.
“This is the only game that matters this year”, said the 23-year-old Doll, a fourth-round draft pick in 2015. Medlock thanked his wife, Blue Bomber CEO Wade Miller, GM Kyle Walters, Head Coach Mike O’Shea, special teams coach Paul Boudreau and his long snapper and holders, Chad Rempel, Matt Nichols and Weston Dressler.
CFL officials have announced that One Republic will be the headline of the WIND Mobile Halftime Show. They didn’t even finish with a.500 record as they were 8-9-1 on the yeary.
But he’s finally found a stable home with the Stampeders.
Last Sunday, in the eastern final, TD Bank Stadium was sold for the 12th consecutive time.
Redblacks coach Rick Campbell confirmed Saturday kicker Chris Milo and returner Tristan Jackson will not be healthy enough to play Sunday.
“I don’t want to talk about what kind of team we will be if we win”. “Anything they’ve got in the hotel”.
“The first thing I do when I wake up is watch film to get my mind going”.
