The ground attack was a big reason for the Saskatchewan Roughriders’ success this season and they executed it flawlessly in the biggest game of the year.

Kory Sheets earned MVP honours after running 20 times for a record 197 yards and two touchdowns to power Saskatchewan to a dominant 45-23 win over the Hamilton Tiger-Cats in Sunday’s Grey Cup. The Riders became the third straight host team to win the CFL title with their first-ever championship at Mosaic Stadium, which will be replaced in 2017.
