B.C. Lions visit Winnipeg Blue Bombers for first-place showdown
It’s only August but Dane Evans and the B.C. Lions have a chance to really gain the upper hand on the Winnipeg Blue Bombers.
There’s certainly no shortage of storylines heading into the contest, but none is bigger than the CFL’s top-ranked defence facing the league’s second-leading scoring offence that’s led by the league’s outstanding player the last two years . The Lions have allowed five TDs in 99 possessions and last week stopped Edmonton on all 13 of its drives in a 27-0 victory. It also marked the second time this year B.C. had shut out the Elks.
Adams completed 20-of-29 passes for 241 yards and two touchdowns in B.C.’s first meeting against Winnipeg.B.C. receiver Dominique Rhymes returns after missing last week’s game versus Edmonton. Cornerback Winston Rose makes his season debut for Winnipeg after missing time with a foot ailment.
