    It was a very good game to watch. There was lots of NCAA games happening today - glad I watched the Vanier.
    Hope, at the end of the day connects us all, no matter how different we are

      Saw the last few minutes. Two key interceptions that seemingly gave the other team the edge. Great finish.

      When Montreal got the ball, I was expecting to see Danny M dance across the field in celebration

      Did I hear that it was the first time ever that a rookie QB won the Vanier?
      Out of my mind; back in five minutes.

          He is a first year player though I do believe. Only 19 years old heck of a kid by the looks of it..

            Glad to see that UBC wiped that ****-eating, gum-chomping grin off of D(u)m's face at the end. After what that little prick did to tear down the EE organization during his reign of error here, I was hoping that he would have been out of the football spotlight forever....

              One of the most entertaining Vanier Cup games I have seen. CIS football improves every year. A total of 96 pass attempts in the game. Head coaches get most of the credit, but OC Steve Buratto has put an outstanding pro style offence in place for UBC.

                I wonder if Blake Nill would ever garner any consideration for a Head Coaching position in the CFL. His track record in the CIS obviously speaks for itself.

                    I guess you could say CFL style. Not like the old CIS days of two handoffs and a punt. UBC uses one RB like the CFL. They have a good one though. For sure he's going to be drafted. Nine carries for a 8.8 yd average yesterday for Deschamps. BC threw 51 passes yesterday completed 31. I think U Montreal was not used to seeing 6 recs. Outstanding game.

                        I enjoyed the VC once again even though the mere sight of Danny Maciocia still irks me.

                          Don't know if you are familiar with Buratto. But he was a head coach in the CFL, plus oline coach and both D & O cord. in the CFL. It really shows with the BC offence . I watched the playoff games getting them to the Vanier Cup and they blew out good U Manitoba and U Calgary and UFX teams.

                            I don't mind seeing DM, and wish him the best of luck. He was well-meaning and put his all into the job. Great attitude, just couldn't get it done.

                            I include him in BONE, unlike one of his successors.
