clarmount runs roughriders all the way to Calgary

Third Quarter

The second play of the second half Durant barely missed Weston Dresser who would have run for a touchdown and the Lions go down next and kick another field goal to take a 19-7. Then the Roughriders lead by Durant went on 12 play 79 yard touchdown drive to get the crowd back into the game and the Roughriders got a big first down at the end of the third quarter.

Fourth Quarter

Still on the final drive from the third quarter the riders kept on going down the field and scored a field goal to cut the lead to 19-17 and then the Lions got the ball back and went down the feild but ended up needing to punt the ball away. On the punt Rice Grice-Mullen decided to let ball rolled into the end zone and he just let roll and roll and finally it made it into the endzone barely to give up a point to make it 20-17 but the riders got the ball on their own 35 yard line. On the next plsy Durant goes back to pass and he took 6 seconds to throw the ball and he threw it deep and Dressler caught it and ran for a touchdown to give the Riders a 24-20 lead and the crowd was going crazy and with 5 minutes left Lance Frazier intercepted Travis Lulay and with 3 minutes left the Riders were up 27-20. Then it was coming down to the end of the game the Lions were on the Rider's 30 yard line and Lulay threw the ball up for graps in the endzone and Emmanuel Arceneaux caught the ball to send it to overtime.

Overtime

The Roughriders got the ball first (all possessions in overtime start at opponent's 35 yard line) and they went down the field and after an interference call in the end zone put the ball on the 1 yard line where Rider runningback Wes Cates ran in to give the riders 33-27. Then the Riders went for 2 from the 5 yard line ( after a untying touchdown the team has to go for 2 ) and Durant threw to Andy Fantuzy for the 2 points to make it 35-27 and then the Lions got the ball and moved down the field and Travis Lulay ran the ball in from 5 yards away to make it 35-33. Then on the 2 point conversion they ran out of time and had to try from the 10 yard line where Lulay threw Geroy Simon to complete the 2 point conversion to tie it 35 all and then the Lions got the ball again and went down the field but had to kick a field goal to take a 38-35 lead. The Riders if they could go down the field for a touchdown they win so Durant gets the ball he goes back to throw and drops it off to Jason Clermount who runs it into the end zone to win the game.

Final thoughts

Darain Durant was really bad in the first half and he came out and threw for more than 200 yards of his 310 in the second half and all of his 3 touchdown in the second half along with overtime and Cates ran 15 times for 65 yards in the game and Weston Dressler was the favourite target with 8 catches for 150 yards with 2 touchdowns. Travis Lulay had a great game 387 yards threw the air and 4 players had 5 catches in the game so he spread the offense around and Jamal Robertson the runningback for the Lions ran 11 times for 75 yards.

First Quarter

Travis Lulay the quarterback of the Lions has completed 6 receivers in the quarter so he is moving the ball through the air but the running game is being stopped by the Roughriders defense. Darian Durant of the quarterback for the Roughriders went 1 for 6 through the air and they had 3 big plays a 34 yard pass to Weston Dresser while Wes Cates the runningback had a run of over 20 yards and Lance Patrick of the Riders defense had a sack of Lulay who coughed up the ball to help the Riders get a field goal and took a 4-3 lead into the second half.

Second Quarter

Travis Lulay has kept the ball moving through the air and has moved it done the field and has a touchdown and set up 2 field goals and Robertson the runningback has broken some big runs. Durant has 1 good drive in the first half going 3 of 4 and with some more good running from Cates set up the Roughriders 2Nd field goals of the half and Durant is not sharp missing wide open receivers and the Lions lead going into the second half 16-7. For the Roughriders Durant needs to settle down and complete passes and have long extended drives for touchdown while Cates needs to continue to carry the ball in the second half and get some yardage.
