Winnipeg won 28-20 in last year’s battle for the right to play in the Grey Cup
The B.C. Lions’ message since May’s training camp in Kamloops has been clear: push beyond the Western final and win the Grey Cup.
Quarterback Vernon Adams Jr. didn’t start last year’s West Division final — he was backup to ex-Lions starter Nathan Rourke — but he said its memory and aftermath has hung heavy with the team. The Lions had a chance to win that game at the end, with receiver Dominique Rhymes surging forward into open field in the dying seconds of the game only to be dragged down at the five-yard line as time expired.
The Lions have spent the week training at B.C. Place this week in an attempt to mimic the noise they will have to put up with in Winnipeg.
