*Note: a win this weekend would clinch a playoff spot for the Blue Bombers for a seventh straight season, their longest run since a 17-year streak ended in 1997.

- Zach Collaros is 6-0 in his career in Labour Day Classic games – 3-0 during his days in Hamilton, 1-0 in his one season in Saskatchewan and 2-0 in Winnipeg. In those games has a 13:3 TD-to-interception ratio while passing for 300 yards three times and over 400 yards in 2015 while with the Ticats.

- The Blue Bombers are 24-3 against West Division clubs since 2021.

- A victory in Regina this weekend would give the Blue Bombers a winning record on the road for the third consecutive season, matching a mark last set from 1960-62.

These are the good times, folks. I hope you are all savoring them.

 

 

 

Why did we give up the first single when they committed no yards in the endzone? That point seemed more valuable than the extra 15 yards. 
 

I get that we had to give up the second, but we shouldn’t have given the first.

The end around return would’ve been good 

KL time please

Sure miss grant

PI.  He was bumped before the ball got there.

 

That's PI.  But we don't have a timeout to challenge.

Who's decision was it to give up that single?

Can’t imagine it’s the coaches.

Command center I guess serves no purpose

Totally...that's a standard call that time of game with a score what it was

That was mcrae

I think giving up the 1 probably was the right move. We went 2 and out.

Or... novel thought here... getvthe ******* call right?

Hell of a game. Great to be at.

Pete Robertson is a level 200 idiot. Embarrassing to see that.

Our kick coverage is extremely bad. 
 

if anything. This week we need to change up our cover schemes or personnel. It’s actually embarrassing 

No kick or punt return in OT - advantage bombers!

No kickoffs in overtime at least.

This is what you want in the rivalry game from a league position.
