WINNIPEG — Adam Bighill is hoping Winnipeg Blue Bombers fans get at least one thing they want on Friday — a victory.

Winnipeg’s home game against the CFL-leading Toronto Argonauts is the club’s third straight sellout at IG Field, but it’s not the marquee matchup 32,343 fans were expecting to watch.

“But from a playing standpoint, we’ve still got to come out here and play and understand they’re bringing their best to beat us. We can’t overlook the fact that we’ve got to take care business. Winnipeg is coming off their second bye week of the season and a 29-23 loss to the Hamilton Tiger-Cats two weeks ago. The Bombers are 6-0 after a bye week since 2021, 12-1 since 2017 and are No. 1 in the CFL since 2015 at 13-4.

“And, secondly, from watching tape all week long, the guys they’re leaving home on the defensive side are unbelievable football players, but they have a lot of really great football players still playing.” “You can see them practise all you want, but until you see live in a game you don’t know what you’ve got,” Dinwiddie said of the decision with his backups.

“The circumstances that it comes in is obviously great for the team,” Dukes told reporters after he learned he’d be starting. “I’ve got great guys around me. I’ve just got to get the ball in play-makers’ hands and stay efficient, so I’m looking forward to it.”“In college he’s got quite a lot of running highlights and in the Calgary game he had some good scrambles,” Bighill said.
