Three Downs: Huskies game balls against Alberta

First down: Who get’s your game ball on offense? Dallas: I’m taking Trent Peterson. This is the performance we’ve been waiting for from the quarterbacks all season.

Game balls: Huskies over Rams second edition

Who receives your game ball on defense?

Three downs: Huskies at Dinos edition

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 [...]

Three downs: Huskies over Rams

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 [...]

Huskie fans knew that it was only a matter of time before 1st year rb Dexter Janke had an impact game. It happened in the Huskies’ 33-10 win over the Rams. Dexter had a little over 200 yards rushing and receiving, along with 2 touchdowns. “It felt great,” he said about the opportunity to be [...]

Unsung Hero: Huskies over Bears edition

After every game, we give a game ball to an unsung hero. These are players that you may not hear too much on the PA system, had should be recognized. Dallas: My Unsung Hero for this game is Dexter Janke. He was a key part of the drive that led to the Ben Coakwell touchdown [...]

Three Downs: Huskies over Bears edition

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 [...]

It was exciting to watch him play and nice to see the elusive, running quarterback on [...]

QB’s comment on non-conference game vs. Windsor

While the Huskie offense did manage to put 34 points up on the board last night, don’t let the score fool you into thinking that the offense was a well-oiled machine against the Lancers.
