Looking forward to a great match-up: defending Champs vs. a young team on the rise.

Vet coach match-up: Nill vs. the Garden Gnome

Nice QB match-up with vet Cousineau (i say again - an outstanding pure passing QB) vs. the young gun O'Connor with all the hype around him (was at Penn State and had a good CIS rookie year)

Montreal have a big, vet O-line, a good RB and run game, some good receivers and a tough D; BC have some big-play makers on offence (Deschamps is a very tough inside RB - he should get a CFL look at tailback rather than a gob sort of look as a fullback; receivers Davis and Pinto are speedsters); BC's D is going to get a real test and not sure they have enough experience and talent there. Big advantage to UBC in the kicking game as Van Glyswick is an outstanding dual kicker (bet he plays in the CFL).

I'd bet on a Carabins repeat; but BC could win with big plays on offence or if it comes down to makable FGs.
