Chris Jones Moves Into Tie with Bob Dyce for Rider Wins
If you were paying attention leading up to the game Saturday night at Taylor Field, the signs were unusually in the the Riders favor for a win.
A steady progression in play on offense and defense combined with a slowing down of a revolving door of players coming on and off the roster combined again with Hamilton losing a number of critical starters. At least on paper the Riders looked to be competitive.
The result was the Riders coming with a last second 20-18 win with Mitchell Gale leading the way after replacing Darian Durant because of injury and luckily managing to avoid fumbling to Hamilton an apparent 107 yard touchdown.
Yeah, the Riders short yardage follies made an appearance again.
