Both teams had to play on it, but it was bad! It looked like the grounds crew tried to over compensate for the really dry, late summer weather we have had by over watering. I don’t think it worked!

Priester had gone back to SAM after the injury to Mauger a couple of plays earlier. Anyway, these are the kinds of mistakes that have to be eliminated.

There must have been 500 young kids on the field at half time doing that massive dance show, and although that probably sells another 1,000 tickets to all the parents, I bet a lot of them didn't stick around past halftime.

Butler was almost certainly Priester's responsibility, but the same play (or a slight variation thereof) was open for Hamilton all night. It's almost like the DCs were so determined not to give up the deep ball (as they did on Labour Day) that they overcompensated by dropping everyone off. Pass coverage has been quite a shambles this year, and last night the d-line got dominated by Hamilton's o-line. Can't win when you can't pressure the QB and can't cover the receivers. To make matters worse, there was a report last night that Hamilton is likely gonna extend Jamal Peters' contract, so there goes one potential avenue for improvement this off-season.

Completely unrelated, but someone posted a 20-minute clip of a 1998 game between BC and the Argos, and you could hear the Argonotes featured prominently.
