All the away teams won on opening weekend. That is except for the sloppy Stamps.

BC defense enfuego.

Hamilton only had 5 series all night that went past 2 and out.
Needless to day, it didn't end well for them

Surprised to see BC 2-0, but good for them. Stamps looked much better tonight than they did last week, although Winnipeg still stinks.

Ottawa's 2 and 0 as well. Burris is gone now for a few weeks though.

looked pretty decent against hamilton. a couple more victories like that (it was a shit game in wind but they did a fine job with the conditions) and Ill be pretty excited with how this season could go. Stamps looked great in their win

Not sure how long it will last, but this guy's youtube channel contains highlights and full CFL game replays. I don't think it is affiliated with the CFL, so enjoy it while you can.

Thanks, how about those BC Lions. 2 and 0. Buono's doing good for them.

I hope the Lions can keep it going, it's been a few tough years for them and attendance has taken a hit. The strength of that team is the defence, as long as Bighill and Solly can stay healthy, they should be a playoff team as Winnipeg is still awful and the Riders still have plenty of question marks.

Current OT rules allow for a maximum of two mini-games. If no one wins the game, it's a tie. Personally, I think both teams deserved no points tonight.

Game Rule Ratio
Each team may have a maximum of 44 players, including 3 players who shall be identified as quarterbacks and 41 other players, of whom not more than 20 may be international players (i.e. non-Canadian)

Each team must establish a reserve roster of 2 players. These 2 players may be national or international players.

3 weeks in and only 1 team with no loss with Ottawa. Looks like last year is no fluke for them.

And Ottawa won again last night. Trevor Harris had a great game for them.

In their last 25 regular season games played, the Riders are 5-20.
