Trevor Harris found KeeSean Johnson for 137 yards and the Roughriders held off a scrappy Ottawa club that just can’t buy a win.<\/p>\n
The Saskatchewan Roughriders<\/a> outscored the Ottawa Redblacks<\/a> 27-3 across the second and third quarters to build a cushion, then hung on late as Ottawa clawed back with a fourth-quarter score. Saskatchewan improves to 3-1 and stays glued to the top of a crowded West race, while Ottawa drops to 0-4 and remains the only winless team in the league.<\/p>\n Box Score<\/p>\n Team<\/p>\n Q1<\/p>\n Q2<\/p>\n Q3<\/p>\n Q4<\/p>\n OT<\/p>\n Final<\/p>\n Saskatchewan Roughriders<\/p>\n 0<\/p>\n 13<\/p>\n 14<\/p>\n 0<\/p>\n 0<\/p>\n 27<\/p>\n Ottawa Redblacks<\/a><\/p>\n 10<\/p>\n 3<\/p>\n 3<\/p>\n 6<\/p>\n 0<\/p>\n 22<\/p>\n See full player stats and game details<\/a><\/p>\n Game Highlights<\/p>\n Top PerformersSaskatchewan RoughridersOttawa RedblacksTeam Stats<\/p>\n Stat<\/p>\n Saskatchewan Roughriders<\/p>\n Ottawa Redblacks<\/p>\n Total Yards<\/p>\n 350<\/p>\n 338<\/p>\n Passing<\/p>\n 18\/31, 243 yds, 2 TD<\/p>\n 23\/30, 259 yds, 1 TD<\/p>\n Rushing<\/p>\n 22 att, 107 yds, 0 TD<\/p>\n 17 att, 79 yds, 1 TD<\/p>\n Turnovers<\/p>\n 1<\/p>\n 0<\/p>\n Quick Hits<\/p>\n Saskatchewan’s 27-point outburst over the middle two quarters buried Ottawa before the Redblacks could ever find a rhythm.<\/p>\n Jake Maier completed better than 76% of his throws for 259 yards, but a lone touchdown wasn’t enough to keep pace with the Riders’ balanced attack.<\/p>\n KeeSean Johnson’s 9-catch, 137-yard, 1-TD line was the clear fantasy standout, giving Harris a legit go-to target through the air.<\/p>\n What’s Next<\/p>\n CFL Standings<\/a> | Full Schedule<\/a> | League Leaders<\/a><\/p>\n What’s your takeaway?
