The Saskatchewan Roughriders moved into second place in the CFL’s West Division with a 29-16 victory over the Ottawa Redblacks on Saturday.
“I think the last thing you’ll feel from this team is the sense that ‘we’re okay, we’ve won two [games in a row]. There’s none of that. We’re going to push the envelope even harder,” quarterback Trevor Harris told reporters following the game.
The team controls their own destiny if they hope to host a home playoff game come November with three Western opponents remaining on the regular season.
The Roughriders (7-7-1) reached 15 points and one more than the B.C. Lions (7-8-0) who lost 32-29 in overtime to the Hamilton Tiger-Cats on Friday.
The Redblacks (8-6-1) rank second in the East Division three points up on the Toronto Argonauts, who were at home to the Montreal Alouettes on Saturday night.
