The Grey Cup attracted 3,385,800 average English-language viewers on television, plus 156,400 viewers on RDS for a total of 3,542,200.<\/p>\n<p>TSN did not provide a breakdown in viewership by language, but it is safe to assume that French-language interest was a key driver in the growth after ratings plummeted 79.2 percent on RDS last year.

They also announced a 27 percent growth in people streaming the game on TSN+ and 150,000 viewers on a brand new TikTok live stream.<\/p>\n<p>The Saskatchewan Roughriders defeated the Montreal Alouettes in the 112th Grey Cup at Princess Auto Stadium in Winnipeg by a score of 25-17.<\/p>\n<p>Trevor Harris was named Most Valuable Player after he completed 23-of-27 pass attempts for 302 yards, winning his first Grey Cup as a starter. Samuel Emilus was named Most Valuable Canadian after he made 10 catches for 108 yards, finishing only two receptions shy of tying the Grey Cup record.<\/p>\n<p>2025 Grey Cup:\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Montreal vs. Saskatchewan \u2014 4,0200,000<\/p>\n<p>2024 Grey Cup:\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Winnipeg vs. Toronto \u2014 TSN and CTV 3,385,800, RDS 156,400 for 3,542,200 total<\/p>\n<p>2023 Grey Cup:<\/p>\n<p>Winnipeg vs. Montreal \u2014 TSN 2,823,900, RDS 752,600 for 3,576,500 total<\/p>\n<p>2022 Grey Cup:<\/p>\n<p>Toronto vs. Winnipeg \u2014 3,121,000<\/p>\n<p>2021 Grey Cup<\/p>\n<p>Winnipeg vs. Hamilton \u2014 2,873,000<\/p>\n<p>2019 Grey Cup<\/p>\n<p>Hamilton vs. Winnipeg \u2014 3,682,600<\/p>\n<p>2018 Grey Cup<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Ottawa vs. Calgary \u2014 3,132,000<\/p>\n<p>2017 Grey Cup<\/p>\n<p>Calgary vs. Toronto \u2014 4,100,000<\/p>\n<p>2016 Grey Cup<\/p>\n<p>Calgary vs. Ottawa \u2014 3,600,000<\/p>\n<p>2015 Grey Cup<\/p>\n<p>Ottawa vs. Edmonton \u2014 4,100,000<\/p>\n<p>2014 Grey Cup<\/p>\n<p>Hamilton vs. Calgary \u2014 4,100,000<\/p>\n<p>2013 Grey Cup<\/p>\n<p>Hamilton vs. Saskatchewan \u2014 4,500,000<\/p>\n<p>2012 Grey Cup<\/p>\n<p>Calgary vs. Toronto \u2014 5,500,000<\/p>\n<p>2011 Grey Cup\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Winnipeg vs. B.C. \u2014 4,600,000<\/p>\n<p>2010 Grey Cup<\/p>\n<p>Saskatchewan vs. Montreal \u2014 6,040,000<\/p>\n<p>2009 Grey Cup<\/p>\n<p>Saskatchewan vs. Montreal \u2014 6,100,000<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Photo: Reuben Polansky\/3DownNation.
