Dallas: I will go with the entire offensive line, who provided some big lanes for the running backs. They’re playing better than they have all season and are a big reason for the success of the offence over the last two games. Tom: Mitch Friesen had a good game and has had a good season [...]

First Down: What does the Huskies offense need to do to get back on track? Tom: The short answer is that all parts of the offense need to play better – can’t be missing blocks, need to hang on for receptions, RB’s need to hit the hole hard, and our QB’s need to be more [...]

First Down: Can anyone beat the Calgary Dinos this year? Dallas: Yes, and I wouldn’t be surprised to see Manitoba do it this weekend. Calgary has been good through the first 3/4 of the season, but they’ve also had a lot of bounces go their way. They’re not that far in front of the pack, [...]

After each game, we award a game ball to our Unsung Hero, a player whose name you may not have heard over the PA system, but made a huge contribution to the team. Tom: The offensive line had a great game. Hopefully they can build off of Friday’s performance and continue to get stronger as [...]

First Down: who gets your game ball on offense? Tom: JGK was the straw that stirred the drink on Friday; the Huskie offense really got rolling once Jahlani came into the game. Game ball to him, with an honourable mention to Ben Coakwell for an outstanding performance as well. Dallas: Ben Coakwell had a great [...]

First down: Will the Huskies be able to slow down Billy Greene and the UBC offense? Ryan: Billy Greene is my mid-season pick for CanadaWest MVP. His is an exciting player to watch. UBC has not faced a defense as good as the Huskies so far this year and with the return of Peter Thiel [...]

First down: What is the big story heading into this weekend’s CanadaWest action? Dog Whisper: Does UBC successfully take their success on the road or does Saskatchewan right the ship in the friendly confines of Griffiths Stadium? Second half momentum if HUGE in CanWest historically so there’s no reason to think that this year will [...]

First down: Will the Huskies be able to stop Steven Lambala and the Dinos run game? Dallas: Yes. The Huskies have the best run defence in the Canada West and this game will show why. Lumbala and company will still get a few yards, but if they think they’ll pile up the rushing yards as [...]

First Down: What are the headlines heading into week 4 in CanadaWest? Dog Whisperer: In CanWest here’s how I see it: Calgary has to top the list followed closely by Saskatchewan with UBC close behind and Manitoba a hair behind that. I see the Manitoba game as a HUGE wake up call for the Huskies. [...]

First Down: Will the Huskies offense be leading the league in points after the Manitoba game is over (note: the questions were asked on Friday afternoon, before the Calgary/Regina game)? Dallas: I think the Huskies offence will lead the league in points all season, as long as they protect the ball. Limiting or eliminating turnovers [...]

Who deserves the game ball on Offense? Dog Whisperer: How can you not go with Dexter Janke. In a rivalry game momentum is a huge factor. Dexter giveth and then he taketh away. His 101 yard catch and run was a huge shift in a game where the Rams had mo on their side. Dexter [...]

First Down: who receives your game ball on offense? Dallas: It’s difficult to pick one player when there were so many contributors, but I think Jeff Moore deserves a game ball for his play in his first game back since last year’s season opener. His fourth quarter touchdown was a great catch, right through the [...]

First Down: Which Huskie gets your offensive game ball? Dallas: I have to go with Jahlani Gilbert-Knorren. His 96 yards on the ground and 152 yards passing were done in less than two quarters against a solid Windsor defense. It was exciting to watch him play and nice to see the elusive, running quarterback on [...]

First Quarter: Which veteran impressed you the most on offense? Tom: I’ll begin this by saying that there were so many players that it is hard to single people out, and I will be mentioning more than one player in most of the quarters (and I will still have left some people out). That being [...]

Note: Pre-game live blog starts around 9:00am today and runs until noonish. First down: what do the Huskies need to do on offense this weekend to win? Dallas: They need to keep the winning formula intact. That is, run to set up the pass and pass to set up the run. The Huskies are much [...]
