John Bower September 21 2009So here we are at almost the halfway mark of the CIS season and were starting to see some teams pulling away from the pack in their respective conferences while others are hanging in and are going to make for some ridiculously fun playoff races! Lets start out east with the AUS Granted its a four team conference but StFXs opening week win over Saint Marys could end up giving X the advantage that they finally need to get over the hump that is home field in the postseason Of course thats all going to depend on them not squeaking out wins over teams like Mount Allison This week theyre going to face a DESPERATE Concordia team who are 03 and looking nothing like the team that gave Laval a run for their money in last years Dunsmore Cup Another desperate team are the Vert & Or from Sherbrooke You might be asking how can a team at 21 be desperate Well lets put it this way Saint Marys Montreal and Laval as well as Concordia are what stand between them and the end of the regular season And remember McGill has the tie breaker winning the lone meeting between the squads They need probably two wins to get out of the desperate category and into the postseason Where theyll most likely face Laval And how desperate was Montreal last week Both quarterbacks out and they start a kid who hadnt taken a snap in practice until three days prior to the game 1 for 2 was Pisou not a bad average but two passes aint gonna win you a lot of games in the CIS However 307 shows that Montreal could be trouble for Laval come playoff time In the OUA Western is starting to show why theyre the two time defending champs after routing my former team the Windsor Lancers 607 on homecoming weekend The defence is solid and maybe the key to them winning this season Dont get me wrong the offence is solid but if theyre going to win the Yates and beat the Q champs to get to the Vanier itll be because they shut down their opponents Speaking of shutting teams down how about the impressive defence of the Queens Gaels Oh my! Yeah theyre expected to shoot out the lights but lets take a straw poll Who thought theyd be 30 when Brannigan went down early in week 2 Okay you in the back row put your hand down because youre lying No one would have predicted that Queens would slam the door in the face of both McMaster and Ottawa holding them to a combined 15points in two games Theyre for real Watch out With Queens and UWO at 30 Guelph Laurier Windsor and Mac at 21 that leaves Ottawa 12 in a dog fight with Waterloo Toronto and York NOT Ottawa already has the tie breaker against Waterloo and faces both Windsor Toronto and York between now and the end of the year ...
