The good, the bad, and the dumb of the Riders’ 31-13 loss in Touchdown Atlantic

The East Coast is proving unkind to the Saskatchewan Roughriders as they dropped their second straight Touchdown Atlantic game to the Toronto Argonauts. Unlike last year, this time around the Riders basically were never in the game after giving up a big lead to the Boatmen early before eventually losing 31-13. The game in Wolfville, […]

The Saskatchewan Roughriders are point underdogs heading into their Touchdown Atlantic match-up with the Toronto Argonauts, but head coach Craig Dickenson is wary of bringing that up with his team. “It just depends on the makeup of your team.
