Tommy Stevens ran in three touchdowns and the Saskatchewan Roughriders<\/a> held off a late Edmonton push to escape Commonwealth Stadium with a 28-26 win.<\/p>\n

The Roughriders<\/a> leaned on their two-quarterback attack all night, with Trevor Harris slinging it around the yard and Stevens punching it in from short range three separate times. The Edmonton Elks<\/a> had the ball moving through the air behind Cody Fajardo, but couldn’t find the end zone enough to close the gap in the fourth quarter. Saskatchewan improves to 5-2 while Edmonton drops to 6-2, keeping both clubs bunched near the top of a crowded West Division.<\/p>\n

Quick Hits<\/p>\n

Stevens’ ground work was the difference-maker \u2014 three short-yardage touchdowns while Harris handled the bulk of the passing load.<\/p>\n

Edmonton actually out-gained Saskatchewan 341-333 and didn’t turn the ball over, but couldn’t turn that yardage into enough points.<\/p>\n

Fantasy managers rostering Austin Mack<\/a> got a solid week \u2014 77 yards on just 4 catches \u2014 but the lack of a touchdown left him short of a big fantasy day.<\/p>\n
