This last win over Saskatchewan reminded me of the Bombers 65 -25 rout of Ottawa in 1984. Used to rewatch a VHS recording of that game. Does anyone have a video link to that game or highlights of it?

One thing I remember about that game was the interview Cal Murphy, who was the coach at the time. Murphy was asked whether the Bombers ran up the score and Murphy's reply was "what am I going to do tell them to fall down." I remember that Williard Reaves ran wild that night behind his "white horses".

Joe Pascucci has 45 seconds of the highlights posted. All Willard, haha. He deserved it though.

I noticed Chris Cariou was the writer of that article. He was my schools student council president when I was in high school.
