Tickets to 103rd Grey Cup sold out, Winnipeg Blue Bombers say
The seven-time CFL all-star won the league’s most outstanding Canadian player award in 2001, and was a nominee for most outstanding defensive player in 2008. He also played for the Calgary Stampeders and BC Lions. “For all young people, don’t let anyone determine what you can do… don’t let anyone tell you that you can’t do something”.
Bighill recorded a CFL- and career-high 121 tackles this season.
Asked about the state of his relationship with the veteran QB, Gibson said: “I’m not going to say anything negative about Henry Burris”.
The host team, the Winnipeg Blue Bombers, announced this afternoon that all 36,634 tickets have been sold for Sunday’s CFL title clash at Investors Group Field between the Ottawa RedBlacks and Edmonton Eskimos. Campbell’s father, Hugh, was coach of the year in 1979 with Edmonton, making them the first father-and-son winners.
Campbell guided Ottawa to first place in the East Division with a 12-6 record after winning just twice in Campbell’s first season as head coach.
Calgary quarterback Bo Levi Mitchell was the other finalist. Burris posted a stellar 70.9-per cent completion percentage with 26 TDs against 13 interceptions after throwing more picks (14) than touchdowns (11) in 2014.
A two-time All-Canadian who won the Grey Cup with Toronto in 1991, Harding played 165 games over his CFL career with 105 sacks.
