@CFLStatsGeek Thank you!☺️

For the first time in history, according to Roughriders’ historian Rob Vanstone, Saskatchewan will play a CFL Western semi-final playoff game against BC… in Vancouver!

@RoarReport @Stampeders1945 What difference does it make to go by winning percentage in the group of three that are tied or counting wins and losses in that group, it does the exact same thing. All three must be sorted, if not: you must take all three to the next tiebreaker (scoring for vs scored against).

@CFLonTSN @TSNDaveNaylor Sad to see the 55 go, hopefully a C, a red and white C adorned a stylized maple leaf carving the negative space of the C will mark centre field.

@Stampeders1945 If Ron Lancaster had not missed almost all of the entirety of that third game, due to an injury suffered in Calgary in game two; one does wonder what the outcome of game three may have been.

[Third Down Gamble @thirddowngamble]

@Stampeders1945 Unbelievable that kick was made; brutally cold conditions and how that football made it over the crossbar is beyond me.

[Third Down Gamble @thirddowngamble]

A Winnipeg win and they are in; a Winnipeg loss and Calgary makes the playoffs.

@calstampeders @acquitted24 Geo is so amazing! Simply a great person!!

@Stampeders1945 Daryl: After a reach out to the league, Saskatchewan would be ahead of Calgary based on winning percentage within that group of three. The order is Winnipeg 3-2, Saskatchewan 2-2, Calgary 2-3.

[Third Down Gamble @thirddowngamble]

@RoarReport @Stampeders1945 The next tiebreaker, if going past wins-losses among the three teams involved, would be point for and against among the three-teams.

The tiebreaker has to determine how to place all three teams in the standings, not just eliminate one and then tie-break the remaining two.

@TheJCAbbott @ElksPresMorris @Sports1440 @JasonGregor @3DownNation Great by Deb! It is time to move on from the blather and start supporting a very good team on the field.

[Third Down Gamble @thirddowngamble]

@Stampeders1945 George is an awesome person, I will be missing him on the sidelines.

The playoff race in the CFL Western Conference could be much clearer after this weekend… or not.

The playoff stretch could see a myriad of possibilities play out in the CFL West.
