BC @ SASKATCHEWAN ?‍?Marks the return of Area 51's brother with BC (Ricky Foley) Ian Hamilton- When the Roughriders fall behind, they tend to abandon the running game and opponents then can get after quarterback Kevin Glenn. Kevin Glenn starts. Glenn had his lowest output of the regular season in that loss — he threw for 186 yards, albeit with a completion percentage of 70.4 — but he was under duress for much of the game thanks to the Lions’ defensive line. ?‍? Jonathon Jennings starts for BC I. Hamilton- The Riders are not getting to opposing quarterbacks enough. Rookie Tobi Antigha is second to Jefferson with two sacks and Antigha and A.C. Leonard are tied for second with six pressures apiece. Saskatchewan entered Week 8 ranked seventh in the league with 11 sacks and ninth in the CFL with 31 pressures. ?‍? Dan Clark out at centre. LaBatte fills in, with T Dennis moving to guard, and Bruce (better late than never) Campbell comes off the reserve list to play tackle. This alone should be worth a look. ?‍? BC, who easily beat Sask. last week, relied on 5 FG attempts...with 4 being made. CFL.ca Staff By The Numbers 3 – Touchdowns for Duron Carter in the Riders past two games. 4 – Minimum catches that Riders receiver Bakari Grant has made each game.

They have five touchdowns apiece. 51 – League leading tackles for Solomon Elimimian heading into Week 8. ?‍? The Riders have played well at home so far this year (2-1). Can they prevail today?
