It is always has, and always will, render this league 3rd class. It is bad enough having a game decided by kicking... but rewarding bad kicking is something that cannot be explained or defended.
Disagree. I've never even understood this, both teams play by the same rules, how do the rules make something "3rd class".
People really are focusing on the wrong things here. If Sask wanted to win that game they shouldn't have COMPLETELY bungled that final series. So many mistakes. First the sack, but at least that doesn't stop the clock. Until the idiot coach stops it for Argos with a timeout (and a pass they complete lol).
But let's even take it from the timeout. There's 31 seconds left when they snap after the timeout. If you run the ball there, there's probably 24-26 seconds left on the clock. Then since it'll be a tackle in bounds clock will start when play is whistled in. You snap it at 4-5 seconds left. There's any number of plays that can kill that much time, or even tell your punter to hit that ball as high as he possibly can. Most punters can easily put 4-5 seconds of hang time on the ball. When you include the snap and 3 step kick, there is definately 0's on the clock as TO catches that ball. You only need to prevent the return TD. Instead they passed on 2nd and 17 stopping the clock until the snap with an incompletion.
I like Mace as a coach, but he showed his inexperience in this one.
The single rewards field position. I wouldn't have it any other way. Toronto really took it to Sask for 3 quarters and deserved to win that game.
this Redblacks team is f***ing scary, putting the league on notice
