Bears smothered in 19-14 loss to Regina

Alberta falls to 2-3 following second-straight loss

HEADLINE
  • The University of Regina Rams ensured a return to the postseason for the first time since the 2017 season on Saturday after hanging on for a 19-14 win over Alberta on Saturday afternoon at Leibel Field.
  • The loss for Alberta is their second-straight, falling to 2-3 in conference play.  
HOW IT HAPPENED
  • Alberta scored first on a fine 19-yard reception by Orin Schellenberg in the opening quarter.
  • The Rams responded in the second quarter first with a short Aldo Galvan field goal, then with an Olivier Savard nine-yard touchdown run which capped a six-play, 60-yard drive that also featured three Riley Boersma runs and a Boersma catch.
  • The Rams led 12-8 at halftime and 13-8 heading into the fourth, and went up 16-8 with a Galvan 32-yard field goal with six minutes to go.
  • Alberta marched downfield with a quick, long drive that was finished off by a Dakota McKay touchdown catch, but the Golden Bears' two-point attempt that would have tied the game was no good thanks in large part to solid coverage by Jaxon Ford.
  • The Rams responded with their best drive of the game, going 11 plays and 77 yards and taking 4:42 off the clock before Galvan hit another field goal to put the Rams up 19-14.
  • Alberta took over with 40 seconds to go, but had no timeouts left and a completion on the final play of the game left the Golden Bears well short of the end zone and sealed Regina' fourth win of the season.
NOTES
  • The Rams clinch a playoff berth thanks to Alberta, Manitoba, and UBC all being locked in a three-way tie for third place at 2-3. The possibility exists for a four-way knot for second place at 4-4, but in that case the Rams would win that tiebreaker based on their winning percentage against those other three teams.
NEXT UP
  • The Bears will enjoy a well-deserved bye week before returning to action on Saturday, Oct. 15th when they host the 0-5 Calgary Dinos at Commonwealth Stadium.
