Dexter Janke had a very quick chat with Huskie Outsider as he was leaving the field following Thursday’s practice. The 1st year tailback, who averages 5.1 yards/carry, was upbeat about the performance of the Dogs’ Oline, against Alberta, and the positive effect they had on the Huskie offence. “It was a big game for the [...]

Despite the 3 point victory that the Huskies earned over UBC in the regular season, the defence wasn’t entirely pleased with their performance on that night. While the unit is generally regarded as the strength of the Huskies, they allowed 501 yards to the TBirds. The defence is looking forward to facing UBC, and they’re [...]

The Huskie defence is going to be facing a high octane offence when they go up against UBC on Saturday afternoon. The TBirds averaged an impressive 475 yards net offence during the regular season.

With 628 net yards gained against the Alberta Golden Bears, the Huskie offense seems to be getting on track at the right time of the season. “It was a big game for the entire offense,” stated slotback Jeff Moore. “We clicked on all cylinders – the OLine played great, the quarterbacks hit everything, and the [...]

The Huskies’ play this season has been a larger reflection of the play of their quarterbacks. Trent Peterson and Jahlani Gilbert-Knorren have split time under centre this season, with one relieving the other when trouble ensued. Until Saturday’s game against the Bears, that is. Peterson started for the Dogs and was red hot from the [...]

Over the last twelve years, the CanWest champion has won their respective bowl game an impressive nine times. Yet, of those last nine Vanier Cup appearances, the CanWest champ has only emerged victorious twice: the 2007 Manitoba Bisons, and the Huskies third Vanier Cup championship in 1998. I had the opportunity to speak with the [...]

All Huskie fans, myself included, have many fond memories of UofS football over the last several years. But I’m certain that there are few, if any, Huskie fans with as detailed a recollection, of seasons past, as our latest fan to contribute to “From the Grandstand.” Tom S. grew up near Griffiths Stadium, and has [...]

Starting off in Calgary, Wes Gilbertson of the Calgary Sun reports that fatigue in the first game was all that separated the Calgary Dinos from an undefeated season. “We have one of the top offences in the country and if we need five yards, I think that we should be able to get five yards,” [...]

It may seem hard to believe, but many feel the first place Saskatchewan Huskies, who host the Calgary Dinos this Saturday, are the underdog for the Hardy Cup/Trophy match. And as far as the Huskies are concerned, that’s just fine. While the Huskies come into the game in first place and as the only team [...]

1. Who gets the offensive game ball? The Outsider: Cory Jones and Braeden George each had three touchdown receptions. Both had long TDs catches as well. Jeff Hassler had over 100 yards rushing on only nine carries. The offensive line gave the quarterbacks time to throw and opened up huge holes for the running backs. [...]
