In the upcoming East Division final on Saturday, the focus will be on quarterbacks Bo Levi Mitchell and Davis Alexander. However, running backs Stevie Scott III and Greg Bell will play crucial roles as well.
Scott had an impressive performance in Montreal’s Eastern semifinal win against Winnipeg, rushing for 133 yards and two touchdowns. Bell, on the other hand, amassed 1,038 yards with a 5.6-yard average and five touchdowns this season. He had a standout game against Montreal earlier in the season, rushing for a career-high 156 yards and a touchdown.
Mitchell led the CFL in passing yards and touchdowns during the regular season, playing a pivotal role in Hamilton clinching the top spot in the standings. On the other hand, Alexander remains undefeated in his 12 starts in the CFL, showcasing his talent as a young quarterback.
Hamilton emerged victorious in both of their matchups against Montreal this season. The team’s offense, led by Mitchell, features three standout receivers who each surpassed 1,000 yards this season. Montreal, known for its strong defense, led the CFL in defensive stats such as fewest offensive and passing yards.
In the West Division final, B.C. Lions will face off against the Saskatchewan Roughriders. B.C. has been on a winning streak, while Saskatchewan boasts a solid defense and a proficient offense led by veteran quarterback Trevor Harris.
With both games set to determine the finalists for the Grey Cup, football fans can expect intense matchups and standout performances from key players on both teams.
