Calgary has dropped three of its past four games but a win today would give the Red and White sole possession of top spot in the West Division.

This is the third meeting of the season between the Stamps and Riders but the first at McMahon. The Stamps claimed a pair of victories earlier this season at Regina’s Mosaic Stadium.

The Riders are trying to bounce back from a 42-5 loss to the BC Lions while also looking to stay alive in the playoff race. Saskatchewan’s record is 4-8 and the Riders start the day six points out of third place in the West.

A reminder that today is the day for the Salvation Army Coat Drive. New and gently used coats as well as cash donations will be accepted at all entrance gates today for redistribution to the less fortunate members of our community.

Also, AM 770 has the call on radio with Mark Stephen and Greg Peterson. This is a big year for the Stampeders’ radio partners as QR77 celebrates its 20th season of bringing the Red and White to the listening audience. The game will also be telecast on TSN (subject to local blackout).

For even more updates, follow communications director Chris Jurewicz’s tweets from the sidelines.
