B.C. Lions visit to Saskatchewan Roughriders a ‘playoff dress rehearsal’: coach
SURREY, B.C. — B.C. Lions coach Wally Buono knows his club will be heading into a “tough environment” when they visit the Saskatchewan Roughriders this weekend.
“You’re on the road. You know it’s going to be really loud, they’re going to be really aggressive. So it’s a fun game,” Buono said after practice on Thursday.
Both the Riders (11-6) and Lions (9-7) have already earned playoff spots, but the final two weeks of the regular season could sway the standings.
A win or tie for Saskatchewan on Saturday would also guarantee the team home-field advantage.
