With the Winnipeg Blue Bombers on the verge of clinching a CFL playoff spot, Saskatchewan head coach Craig Dickenson understands Sunday’s Labour Day Classic will be a tough challenge for his Roughriders.
The Blue Bombers enter the contest in first place in the West Division with a 9-2-0 record. The Riders rank third at 5-5-0.
Dickenson believes the Roughriders will have to be tough and physical to prevail Sunday at Mosaic Stadium. The Blue Bombers can grab a playoff berth for the seventh straight season with a win, which would be their longest run since 1996. Despite Winnipeg winning the past two Labour Day Classics, head coach Mike O’Shea isn’t taking Sunday’s game for granted.
"There is a lot of hype and a lot of noise around these games that you have to be prepared to block out. You can't get way too high and emotional and be able to function out there the way you should.” "We're getting closer, guys are playing really well, playing fast and playing physical. We're playing with a lot of confidence because we come out here and earn that confidence every day with the work we put in and the results we get when we keep rolling.”
Dolegala, who finished 18 of 29 passing for 239 yards and three touchdowns, understands what he’s facing in Winnipeg's defence.
