Fan Poll
Favourite highlight
It’s hard to say what was more impressive, Hakunavanhu dodging several Argos defenders to reach the end zone or the front flip to celebrate.
Bo Levi Mitchell showed his veteran prowess by releasing the ball in only 1.82 seconds, trusting his receiver to do all the work by avoiding three players on his way to six points for the Tabbies.
Avoiding three defenders is wildly impressive, but how Butler running past almost half of the Argonauts defence in this catch-and-run?
With four receivers in front providing key blocks down the field, Butler was able to speed past the first two lines of defence before being caught by defensive back Benjie Franklin. The 47-yard play highlights how much Mitchell trusts his receivers and how well the Ticats offence executed in Week 7.
A fast release by a veteran quarterback connecting with a seasoned playmaker is impressive, but how about two young players doing the same for Saskatchewan? Shea Patterson stood tall against pressure and found a streaking Ajou for a crucial 46-yard gain in the fourth quarter.
The six-foot-two wide receiver’s long strides makes it hard for defenders to keep up with him after the catch, making for a dangerous weapon to complement a stacked pass-catching group in Saskatchewan.
