Nathan Rourke torched Hamilton for 370 yards and the Lions survived a late push to win 27-24.<\/p>\n
The BC Lions<\/a> improved to 3-5 with a home win over the Hamilton Tiger-Cats<\/a>, who drop to 3-6 and stay stuck in the West… well, East basement race. BC led for most of the night behind a big passing day and never let Hamilton fully climb back, even as the Ticats made things interesting in the fourth quarter.<\/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 Hamilton Tiger-Cats<\/p>\n 7<\/p>\n 10<\/p>\n 0<\/p>\n 7<\/p>\n 0<\/p>\n 24<\/p>\n BC Lions<\/p>\n 7<\/p>\n 7<\/p>\n 7<\/p>\n 6<\/p>\n 0<\/p>\n 27<\/p>\n See full player stats and game details<\/a><\/p>\n Game Highlights<\/p>\n Top PerformersBC Lions<\/p>\n Nathan Rourke<\/a> (QB) \u2014 22\/39, 370 yds, 2 TD, 1 INT<\/p>\n Justin Mcinnis<\/a> (WR) \u2014 5 rec, 159 yds, 1 TD<\/p>\n Jevon Cottoy<\/a> (WR) \u2014 7 rec, 109 yds<\/p>\n Zander Horvath<\/a> (RB) \u2014 16 att, 62 yds, 1 rush TD; 1 rec, 7 yds, 1 rec TD<\/p>\n Parker Mckenna<\/a> (LB) \u2014 7 tackles<\/p>\n Hamilton Tiger-CatsTeam Stats<\/p>\n Stat<\/p>\n Hamilton Tiger-Cats<\/p>\n BC Lions<\/p>\n Total Yards<\/p>\n 265<\/p>\n 447<\/p>\n Passing<\/p>\n 20\/33, 239 yds, 1 TD<\/p>\n 22\/39, 370 yds, 2 TD<\/p>\n Rushing<\/p>\n 10 att, 26 yds, 2 TD<\/p>\n 20 att, 77 yds, 1 TD<\/p>\n Turnovers<\/p>\n 1<\/p>\n 1<\/p>\n Quick Hits<\/p>\n Rourke and the Lions racked up 447 total yards, nearly 200 more than Hamilton managed despite the three-point final margin.<\/p>\n Dolegala came off the bench to punch in two short rushing touchdowns, doing the dirty work while Frost handled the passing load.<\/p>\n Cottoy quietly put up 7 catches for 109 yards without finding the end zone \u2014 a solid target-share game for anyone rostering him.<\/p>\n What’s Next<\/p>\n BC Lions (3-5) \u2014 at Calgary Stampeders, Week 11<\/p>\n Hamilton Tiger-Cats (3-6) \u2014 host Saskatchewan Roughriders, Week 11<\/p>\n CFL Standings<\/a> | Full Schedule<\/a> | League Leaders<\/a><\/p>\n What’s your takeaway?
