Also in the second half of that game, Costin was flagged for roughing the passer on 3rd down. It kept the OU drive alive. This was Costin’s response:
1st down: tackle Rourke for no gain
2nd down: TFL
3rd down: draw a holding penalty
3rd and really long: pressure Rourke and force an incomplete pass.
The roughing the passer play just gave him more chances to make a mockery of OU’s offensive line.
Manny Rugumba was activated by the BC Lions for tonight’s game at Calgary. He stretched out to knock down a key second down pass with two minutes left in the fourth to set up a punt and give Rourke a chance to put the Lions in position for a game winning FG. Rourke brought BC 85 yards to set up a 25 yard Shawn Whyte FG to win it 41-40 with 2 seconds left…

Final score: Winnipeg 28 BC 20. Manny Rugumba dropped an interception in the first half but played well. Collaros with a fourth quarter ankle injury…couldn’t finish today’s game. Bombers go to Regina for the Grey Cup next Sunday looking for a Threepeat.
Grey Cup: AJ Oulette’s Argos beat Zach Collaros’ Blue Bombers 24-23. MAC over UC anyway…Ouellette, showing true Bobcat class, dropped the F-bomb not once but twice during a post-game on-field interview.
