Riders Head West to Take on Eskimos

The Saskatchewan Roughriders (0-1) head to the Alberta capital to take on the defending Grey Cup champion Edmonton Eskimos (0-1) in a week three West Division matchup.           

After opening 2016 with a bye in week one, the Riders dropped a 30-17 season opening decision last Thursday against the visiting Toronto Argonauts. 

The Eskimos, meanwhile, were idle last week after dropping their season opening contest 45-37 versus the Ottawa Redblacks in a 2015 Grey Cup rematch.

The action gets underway Friday, July 8th at 8:00 pm (10:00 pm Eastern Time) at Edmonton’s Commonwealth Stadium.      

Fans can watch the game live on TSN or listen on the 620 CKRM Rider Radio Network with Rod Pedersen and Carm Carteri calling the action. The 620 CKRM Roughriders pregame show will begin at 5:30 pm.
