Victoria seems to have returned wind to B.C.’s sails after another win over top Eastern club
The B.C. Lions went into Montreal and beat the CFL’s best team 37-23 on Friday night as running back William Stanback returned with a vengeance, rushing for 128 yards and a 38-yard touchdown run, while quarterback Nathan Rourke passed for 304 yards despite three interceptions.
What can’t be excused is the CFL Command Centre playing yet another major role in a CFL game but the Lions somehow managed to overcome two very questionable calls to still come out on top. The other call that was very questionable was the onside kick attempt by Montreal’s Jose Matos after a Dominique Davis one-yard quarterback sneak had pulled the Alouettes to within five at 27-22.
Despite the adversity, the Lions defence held the Alouettes and forced them to punt after the recovery.
