The calendar has flipped to November and, with that, the BC Lions have shifted their focus to the Grey Cup Playoffs and the pursuit of a seventh championship in club history. Step one on their journey is a date with the Saskatchewan Roughriders in Saturday’s Western Semi-Final at Mosaic Stadium.

And while this 70th season for the franchise has been met with a few bumps on the road and more twists than a Chubby Checker concert, the core veterans and newcomers’ end goal is well within reach. It all starts in hostile territory against an opponent that beat them handily just three weeks ago, a result that plotted the Lions’ course as road dogs come playoff time. Bring it on, they say.

“We’re excited. Everything we’ve worked for comes down to this moment, “said veteran defensive back T.J. Lee.
