REGINA – It went from bad to worse Friday night for the Ottawa Redblacks.
The second quarter was a killer with the guys in green outscoring Ottawa 19-3. Once again, the Redblacks struggled to score touchdowns. With one touchdown Friday, the offence now has five on the season – three of those coming in Game No. 3.Article content
After the Riders started on their own 46-yard line, a sack by Praise Martin-Oguike got the ball back for Ottawa – on its 28. But the Redblacks turned the ball over on downs when a third-and-one gamble was stopped short. After a sack by Lorenzo Mauldin IV, Brett Lauther booted a 50-yard field goal. It was 3-0 5:01 into the game.
Saskatchewan had a drive extended when a coach’s challenge got a pass interference penalty called on Avery Williams. On the Ottawa 41, the Riders successfully converted a third-and-two gamble when Jamal Morrow found the edge around the right side and ran for 19 yards. A sack by Tre Hornbuckle forced the Riders to settle for a 28-yard field goal and take a 6-3 lead early in the second quarter.
A pass interference penalty on Ottawa was followed by a 25-yard catch by Kian Schaffer-Baker. It set up an 18-yard field goal, giving the Riders a 22-6 halftime lead.
