Lions quarterback Buck Pierce committed six turnovers, half of which resulted in Roughrider points. This cost the Lions big time as Saskatchewan went on to win by a score of 28 to 24.

Pierce finished the night completing 17 of 33 passes for 186 yards, throwing one touchdown to Emmanuel Arceneaux; however, Pierce threw two passes to Saskatchewan’s Omarr Morgan.

Saskatchewan’s Darian Durant was 18-of-32 for 313 yards, but threw three interceptions: two to Ryan Phillips, and one to Javier Glatt.

Lions kicker Paul McCallum was 1-of-2 on field goals, making one from 38 yards out, but finding the goalpost on a 48-yarder.

Saskatchewan’s Luca Congi converted on both of his field goal attempts and added three converts for the Roughriders.

Lions running back Ian Smart left the field on one leg in the third quarter; he left the game with thirty rushing yards on four carries.

The Lions actually had a chance to win the game at the end of regulation, but Jarious Jackson’s lone pass of the game fell in the hands of Saskatchewan’s James Patrick.
