Huskies Quarterback Laurence Nixon has submitted his first blog entry in 2010. Nixon had the popular blog “In the pocket with Laurence Nixon” during the 2009 season. Here is his post… As it has been quite some time since my last blog post, quite a bit has happened within the team. We said goodbye to [...]

The Huskies held a wind-up meeting on Monday evening. Coach Towriss went through some administrative stuff and made sure the team was getting ready for finals. After all of the admin stuff was out of the way, the four fifth-year players spoke to the team. The talks were powerful, emotional and showed Huskie Pride. Sometimes [...]

We ran this story a few weeks ago, but we wanted to run it again because the Huskies will be doing some special things at the CanadaWest semi-final against the Rams to support cancer research. Many of the players moms will be going through the stands collecting funds for the “Huskie Play for a Cure.” [...]

Half way through the season, we gave out our mid-term report cards. Here we are with our end of the year awards. Did we miss someone? Let us know in the comments! Offensive player of the season Dallas: Laurence Nixon. While he didn’t lead in any of the statistical categories, his 1933 yards was nonetheless [...]

Prior to each home game, the University of Saskatchewan Huskies Football Program honours its alumni at Champions Plaza. There is a flag commemorating each of the Huskies three Vanier Cup Victories: 1990, 1996 and 1998. There is also one flag to recognize all of the Huskies Hardy Cup victories and one each for the Churchill [...]

It’s fairly clear that after friday’s impressive individual performance, this article should probably be reserved for running back Jeff Hassler. But based on his dominance, his potential, his fast start and the way he’s run roughshod over defenses in two games thus far, chances are we’ll get another opportunity to talk about his achievements. His [...]

The Huskies practiced for about an hour and forty minutes last night on a cold, windy October evening. They travel to Regina on Friday to take on the Rams before starting the playoffs in Saskatoon on November 7 at 1:00pm. It was a typical second prep practice with most of the new wrinkles on offense [...]

Last night’s practice was 105 minutes long on a beautiful fall evening in Saskatoon. There was no wind and the temperature was around 10c. It was the first practice of the week for the Huskies, so they spent a lot more time teaching and learning some new plays which they could use against the Rams [...]

In case you missed it, we’ve got hi-lights! The Huskies came out to a darkened stadium and 5,000 green glo-sticks again. The video is a bit dark, but you’ll get the idea. The Outsider was really impressed with the classy introduction of the four graduating fifth year players.

After the game last night, we caught up with a few Huskie footballers and asked them about the game, what it was like to see the fifth-years introduced and a few other things. On the roll are Laurence Nixon, Hubert Buydens, Mitch Friesen and Bryce McCall.

With a 39-3 drubbing, not much needs to be said. However, here are a few observations, mostly in the form of horrible cliches, from tonight (or last night, as it is currently 2:00 a.m.). Thank you, thank you, thank you to David Dube and Heather Ryan for all they have put into this program. The [...]

Last season, Huskie athletes began the initiative Play For A Cure in hopes of raising money for cancer research. The fundraising initiative continues with the newly added goal of raising awareness through education about cancer. Play For A Cure will once again begin with the football head shave. Money raised will be donated to the [...]

2005. For many Huskies fans at the time, it was a year that put a bitter taste in the mouth of each and every one who witnessed the tail end of the season. It was in every way supposed to be the Huskies year, and in almost every way it was. Having won 11 games [...]

The Huskies practiced for 90 minutes this afternoon before hopping on the buses to Winnipeg. They take on the Manitoba Bisons at 11:00 am on Saturday. The team spent more time on special teams today, as is normal for the third practice of the week. They practiced on the Griffiths Stadium turf. At 3:30 the [...]

1. Who gets the offensive game ball? The Outsider: The Huskies had the offensive breakthrough that they were waiting for. Because of this, many of the starters were replaced in the 3rd quarter so it is harder to pick a player based on stats. Jeff Hassler had a nice debut and he looks like he [...]

Apparently Jack Frost never was much of a football fan. With the Huskies becoming a hot item across the city and ticket sales hitting a fever pitch through the first two home games, another sellout appeared to be in the works for game #3, but following Friday’s mind numbing Frostbite Bowl, the question that I [...]

1. Who gets the offensive game ball? The Outsider: I am going to give this to the running game instead of a person. Tyler O’Gorman had a breakout performance. The offensive line opened holes for him in the running game and gave Laurence Nixon time in the passing game. Shoutouts to Paddy Neufeld, Hubert Buydens, [...]

Tyler O’Gorman scored on a 31 yard touchdown romp in the second overtime as the Saskatchewan Huskies defeated the Simon Fraser Clan in Burnaby tonight. The game was tied 18 to 18 at the end of regulation. The Huskies had the ball first in overtime and Laurence Nixon moved the team but ended up throwing [...]
