Saskatchewan touchdown!
This is rough. There’s 48 seconds left and BC needs a touchdown to win this game. Doable but that’s a tall order.
I knew that rouge would come back to haunt us!
BC Lions 27-31 Saskatchewan Roughriders
WOOOO! TOUCHDOWN BC!
We’re in the lead for the first time this game! And we only got there on a 3rd down, pushing by inches!
Still got a little over 3:30 left, and the game is certainly not over yet!
BC Lions 27-24 Saskatchewan Roughriders
Roughriders reply with their own field goal.
Things are quite intense. It’s been awhile since either team has had a touchdown. You get the feeling that, with time ticking down, something dramatic is on the horizon.
BC Lions 20-24 Saskatchewan Roughriders
Field goal for Lions.
The previous rouge means that Saskatchewan is still in front. Every point matters in this game. And it’s dangerous to concede a point, but I get that teams may want better field position.
BC Lions 20-21 Saskatchewan Roughriders
Rouge for Roughriders to start the 4th quarter.
They missed the field goal and instead of running it out of the end zone, BC conceded one point. Still a tight game but that rouge may come back to haunt BC.
BC Lions 17-21 Saskatchewan Roughriders
BC gets a touchdown on a fast, efficient drive!
There were some passes thrown by Nathan Rourke who is an absolute specimen of a quarterback.
This game is not over. Not by a long shot.
BC Lions 17-20 Saskatchewan Roughriders
Field goal for Roughriders to open the 3rd quarter.
Three more points on the board but their drives are becoming tougher. And that’s a credit to the fact BC’s defence have woken up.
BC Lions 10-20 Saskatchewan Roughriders
Half-time.
No question, Saskatchewan has been dominant. But at least BC is still in the game, and Nathan Rourke is really showing his class as a quarterback.
BC Lions 10-17 Saskatchewan Roughriders
Touchdown BC!
Quarterback Nathan Rourke decided to run his own ball and got it into the end zone! This is now a game!
BC Lions 10-17 Saskatchewan Roughriders
Field goal for Saskatchewan.
We’re back to a 14 point gap. But at least BC’s defence is showing up.
BC Lions 3-17 Saskatchewan Roughriders
Now we’re in the 2nd quarter.
BC on the board with a field goal!
Too bad we couldn’t get a touchdown, but at least we no longer have the goose egg.
BC Lions 3-14 Saskatchewan Roughriders
2nd touchdown for Roughriders.
Lions barely have the ball so far and thus haven’t been able to answer. Roughriders are far ahead. Thing about #CFL is that no lead is safe, though.
BC Lions 0-14 Saskatchewan Roughriders
Roughriders opens the scoring with a good solid drive that gets little resistance from the Lions. Great opening to the season. Let’s see how the Lions respond.
BC Lions 0-7 Saskatchewan Roughriders

Full-time.
Ugh! BC made it all the way to the 33-yard line, we had just a little bit of a shot at a Hail Mary into the end zone, and the receiver couldn’t grab it.
Roughriders win this, deservedly so.
If BC didn’t concede the rouge, we could have tied this up.
