A year ago, the Montreal Alouettes walked off the field in Winnipeg knowing the team had fallen one victory short of accomplishing their ultimate goal.<\/p>\n

Now, one year later, Montreal is back in the big game. And this time around, all-star receiver Tyler Snead isn\u2019t interested in leaving any room for doubt. Asked what will be different this year compared to last, the American receiver didn\u2019t hesitate.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019re gonna win it. We\u2019re going to go in there and win it,\u201d he told 3DownNation after the East Final. \u201cThat\u2019s all I can say.\u201d<\/p>\n

There was no \u201chopefully.\u201d No talk about taking things one day at a time. Just a guarantee.<\/p>\n

Snead wasn\u2019t the only Alouette feeling confident after Montreal punched its ticket to Calgary.<\/p>\n

Defensive lineman Isaac Adeyemi-Berglund was a little more conservative when asked whether the Als were going all the way, but the message remained pretty clear.<\/p>\n

\u201cI know it and you know it, no matter what anybody else says,\u201d he told 3DownNation. \u201cI will believe in this team until the very end. It\u2019s the whole team; it\u2019s three phases. The belief never wavered. Now, there is one more game to win.\u201d<\/p>\n

Linebacker Geoffrey Cantin-Arku, who recorded five tackles on Saturday afternoon, was just as confident after the win.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m proud of our team. Today, we were the better team. You know what\u2019s next, don\u2019t ask me. Grey Cup. We\u2019ll see you in Calgary.\u201d<\/p>\n

For this group, however, the trip to Calgary represents more than another shot at a championship. The goal has been there for two years: the \u201cgrind for nine,\u201d a reference to Montreal\u2019s pursuit of the ninth Grey Cup championship in franchise history.<\/p>\n

Last year\u2019s Grey Cup loss has become motivation for a team that has finally made its way back to this point. The players who experienced that disappointment made sure it wouldn\u2019t simply be forgotten when the 2026 season began.<\/p>\n

\u201cEverybody who was on that field last year in Winnipeg, we made a promise that we were going to show out and do everything that we can to get back to the big game and win. Tonight is just the fruit of our labour.\u201d<\/p>\n

That promise is now one win away from being fulfilled.<\/p>\n

The Alouettes wanted another opportunity. They got it.<\/p>\n

And if you ask Snead, there\u2019s nothing left to wonder about. They\u2019re going to win it.<\/p>\n
