CFL (Non-Bombers) 2026 season news

Uh, wha? If we win our game, doesn't ssk have to win theirs or possible be out? Or certainly lower seeded.

This will guarantee us 3rd if we win then! Makes no sense.

Sask does not have to win. They are in the playoffs.   BUT no matter the outcome of our game if Sask loses they get 4th not 3rd. All I can think of is it matters less who they play than having a healthy Harris.

Starting to look like if we win we get 3rd, if we lose Calgary gets 3rd.

Bombers will win against BC and then get to play them again the following week.

They have clinched the play-offs. They will be a road play-off team regardless of if they win or lose this week.

They may be expecting the Bombers to lose.

I think the Riders prefer taking the Eastern route if they're not getting a home game, they don't have the confidence they can beat the Elks or the Lions vs. the Argos.

I think they'd prefer to be in the West if they had the choice, but the difference isn't large enough to risk injury in the final week of the season.

I haven't seen anything yet but I imagine it could be based on who the Elks are resting too, no reason for any of their starters to play. Should be a good opportunity to preview Taylor Powell.

Looks like Coan will be starting for the Riders with Schlager relieving him at some point.  WHO are they??  Harris is apparently resting for the playoffs.  Exhibition game.
