With the Bombers being 31-3 in their last 34 games at IG Field, O’Shea believes his players can use playing at home to their benefit throughout the game.

“I think the fans will be a part of it,” O’Shea told BlueBombers.com.

“You work this hard to get home field advantage to allow your fan base, especially our fan base, to be a part of this game. And they will be. It will be exciting, and the players will really appreciate it. It will be fun to watch.”

If Winnipeg can pull out a win, they’ll head to their fourth straight Grey Cup, while it would be BC’s first berth since they defeated the Blue Bombers in 2011.

So doing a rewatch and have a question. In the second quarter, we go to Lawler in the endzone. DB looks like he trips him but the db also kicks the ball away with his foot, with his leg up like a soccer player. You can kick the ball away like that?

Foot on the ball isn't a penalty. Thought they could have called PI on all the other contact but Lawler doesn't seem to get those calls because he makes such great plays on the ball.  Also looked like he was getting kicked in the face prior to the ball getting there.

Was wondering that myself.

I thought it was pretty accidental... he tripped over Lawler's feet and his foot kicked up... and without the foot there, it's a TD

Having re-watched a bunch of the game... I didn't realize live how much Adams was Fajardo-ing out there... just leaning into that injury as much as possible... just so everyone knows how much of a warrior he is... Suitor was lapping it up

I'm thinking that would make the highlight reel.

He kicked the ball before kicking Lawler. It was an odd play, but, watching it again last night, it was clean. If anything the hand battles beforehand might have drawn a penalty on Lawler.

Yea...I was screaming at the TV in real time when it happened and fumed over that for a while...but upon rewatch...not interference.

It looked like he kicked Lawler in the face which should have been a penalty.

That's not how I saw it. It appears his leg comes up and actually kicks the ball away from Lawler. Total fluke, but I don't think his foot actually made contact with Lawlers head.

After the fact, and given the Bombers won anyway, it was actually a really cool play

No, but what does that have to do with anything?

Would it then be called "three inch ball"?

Maybe if you're Troy Stoudermire.
