This will bring back memories for those of us old enough to remember while the younger folk will have a better understanding of just what the Argo Bounce meant back in the 1970s and very early 1980s (go to the 20:00 mark and watch John Wells' recap of three games): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Td-d-e6aUlk

The games of interest in that highlight package are the Ticats/Argos and the Ticats/Rough Riders. If Toronto had won or Ottawa had lost, the Argos would have made the playoffs that year. The Argo Bounce definitely worked against them in these two games. Also, it is mentioned that the Argos had a TD called back in their game. In fact, the league admitted a couple of days after that game that the wrong call was made and the TD should have counted. IIRC, it was a TD off of a fake field goal and the officials ruled incorrectly that the Argos were lined up illegally. Speaking of bad calls, the one in the Ottawa game is absolutely atrocious. I know that we love to complain about the officials today but officiating in the CFL now is so much better than it was back then.
