The Alouettes (9-3) beat the Bluebombers (3-9) in an exciting game full of points, and lead changes. The Als came out strong and took a 10-0 lead after the 1st quarter but the Bombers came back strong in the 2nd quarter and took a 26-17 lead and ended up leading the game until late in the 4th quarter. On the game winning 7 play 84 yard scoring drive, Calvillo connected with Cahoon and Bratton to give the Als the 41-40 lead; a lead that the Bombers were not able to get back.
