The Huskies suffered a rare one-sided loss against the Calgary Dinos a couple of weeks ago. The offense sputtered and a veteran defense gave up 38 points. But the Dogs rebounded a week later to beat a very good UBC team at Griffiths Stadium. In that game the offense got back on track, which is [...]

Lost in the action of last week’s close, hard-fought Huskie win over UBC was the excellent job done by the officiating crew. The game was evenly and not overly officiated, and for the most part the officials were invisible, which is what they aim for. But it wouldn’t be a Huskie game without a few [...]

Boy, did they need this! Coming off of two consecutive losses, the Huskies needed a confidence boost with a win. More importantly, however, was the way they won. This tough, grind-it-out victory against a very good UBC team that came down to the wire is proof to fans, but more importantly to themselves, that they [...]

I don’t know what it is about playing at University Stadium in Winnipeg that brings the worst out in the Huskies. I’m glad I’ll never have to see it again. The Huskies stumbled their way to a loss, giving up a twelve point lead and losing their discipline when it mattered most. After jumping out [...]

Usually, a 23 point victory over the Regina Rams would be satisfying. Especially on a night where Head Coach Brian Towriss tied former University of Western Ontario coach Larry Haylor with his 169th career win and the Huskies set an attendance record for the regular season with 7,370 fans, this should have been a tremendous [...]
