Hamilton Tiger-Cats face B.C. Lions in yet another back-to-back scenario
HAMILTON — Nikita Whitlock is happy to face the B.C. Lions again.
The Hamilton Tiger-Cats host B.C. on Saturday to complete a home-and-home series after the Lions rallied to win 35-32 in overtime last week in Vancouver. While many players loathe consecutive games against the same team, Whitlock enjoys the back-to-back encounters.
“I love them,” said the Ticats’ defensive lineman/running back. “It puts something in the air.
“It becomes an authentic rivalry game.”
