Golden Bears 24 Bisons 14
Man, was it a crappy day today 
...but the right team won 
.
It was a pretty good game, considering the conditions. Bears played well...Winkel had 19-151, Salmon was 17/28-236 and a TD. Filkowski was 3/3 on FG's, all in the 4th quarter.
Bears opened up with a safety, then Salmon hit Jason Moss for a 65-yd TD. Manitoba got a safety and a FG in the 2nd q before Bears finally finished a late drive that Salmon ran in from 10 yds for a 15-5 lead at half. Manitoba got another safety in the 3rd, then Beau hit all his FG's in the 4th before the Bisons finally got a TD with 2:30 left.
Was impressed with Filkowski he was solid. Also that Manitoba (the highest-scoring team in the conference) only had 3 offensive pts in the first 57:30.
The Bears' short-yardage team (especially in the red zone) needs some work though...I think they were only about 2 of 4 on 3rd-and-1's today. Though, I heard on the way home that Bears' starting centre got hurt in the 3rd, so that would've caused some problems.
Anyways, good win.
Next up is the game of the regular season - Bears @ Saskatchewan. Both teams are 4-0. Bears have won their last 2 games in Saskatoon.
The TEAM will carry it with Stauffer and Dermott on the mike.
In other U of A action, the puck Bears beat Calgary 4-2 tonight at Clare Drake as well. They lost 3-1 to Saskatchewan last night, though.
They travel to Minnesota next weekend for a 3-game exhibition tour vs. Minnesota, Minnesota State, and St. Cloud.

...who? 
Took me a few plays to figure it out.
