Glenn returns for Roughriders, who face still test against Stampeders
Kevin Glenn and the surging Saskatchewan Roughriders are about to be put to the test.
The Roughriders have been on a recent upswing, winning four of their last five games, and recently topped last year’s win-loss record. But if the Riders are to prove their gains are more than just incremental, they face the essential test against the Calgary Stampeders.
Glenn is back under centre for Saskatchewan (6-5) after missing last weekend’s 27-19 road win over the Hamilton Tiger-Cats with a hand injury, the victory that gave the Riders a better record than last season. He’ll look to carry the Riders’ momentum into Sunday’s home game against the Stampeders (10-1-1) — the team to beat in the CFL.
The Stamps are riding an eight-game winning streak, including a defensive pummelling of B.C. last week and back-to-back wins against the once-top-ranked Edmonton Eskimos prior to that.
