Demerio Houston has a new football for his mantle after his first professional interception for a touchdown was the difference on Friday night.
After the game, Houston was still tightly clutching the football he made the big play on, saying that it was coming home with him."It certainly turned the tide for us. Gave guys a lot of energy on the sidelines, and I think we needed that spark,” O'Shea said. “Well read, great break, sure hands, finish it off in the end zone. Lots to like about that."Blue Bombers' quarterback Dru Brown finished 17-of-27 for 171 yards, starting in place of the injured Zach Collaros.
After Paredes's 36-yard field goal got Calgary back to within a point at 16-15, back came the Blue Bombers with Castillo nailing his fourth field goal of the night, this one from 42 yards out. “I was really proud at the way we came off a short week, playing such a great opponent, that everybody showed up with that sort of commitment level,” said Stampeders coach Dave Dickenson. “But the negative is the confidence isn't there. So until you get confidence, you just don't play with that same swagger.”It appeared Maier had a touchdown pass in the third quarter when on a second down, he found a wide open Luther Hakunavanhu at the five-yard line.
