Hamilton Tiger-Cats rally for 25-24 home victory over Edmonton Eskimos
HAMILTON — Once again, Jeremiah Masoli did it to the Edmonton Eskimos.
Masoli threw for a season-high 419 yards and a touchdown on Thursday night to rally the Hamilton Tiger-Cats to a thrilling 25-24 home victory over Edmonton. Lirim Hajrullahu clinched the win with a 29-yard field goal on the game’s final play.
That gave Hamilton (4-6) a second win in as many games versus Edmonton (6-4) this season. Masoli threw for 332 yards and three TDs in the Ticats’ season-opening 38-21 road win over the Eskimos in June.
“Man, that was a big win for us emotionally for the team overall,” Masoli said. “We’ve got great men of character, that just showed it right there who we are.
