    Every year I look forward to watching CIS football playoffs on TV. Every year I am unable to find it on satelitte TV and end up not watching CIS football playoffs. I thought Rogers SportsNet would have televised them? At one time I was able to see all the playoff games on TSN.

    The Vanier aired on Sportsnet One and 360 today. Same with the Uteck and Mitchell Bowls last week.

    Those are premium service channels unless you have Rogers cable.
    It's us vs the rest of the country

    R.J. is correct....but all I could find on SportsNet was WHL hockey today. The past 2 weekends there was no University football that I could find....odd.

    Congrats to Western - a dominant season - and get to pump the powerhouse Laval team in the big game; rather have seen a closer game, but kinda nice to see Laval get pumped after they have been so powerful.

    Interesting to see a team win in Canadian football with a powerful run game - they didn't dominate Laval with it like they rolled over other teams - but still over 300 rushing yards in the big game, including nice runs from the QB Merchant to go with 2 very good RBs in Taylor & Joseph.

    Also interesting to see a 3-4 D from Western - they have 4 very solid, play-making LBs, and their D was a strong factor.

    Match-up of 2 very good CIS QBs in Merchant & Richard - both big QBs with good arms + running ability.. Not likely to get real CFL shots i suppose, but maybe ?
