B.C. Lions, Winnipeg Blue Bombers Both Expected to Miss Stars for Rematch

The B.C. Lions and Winnipeg Blue Bombers will play a rematch on Saturday at 6 p.m. in Vancouver with significant lineup changes.
The rematch follows last week's 34-20 Winnipeg win, with B.C.'s starting QB Nathan Rourke and Bombers' star RB Brady Oliveira both injured and ruled out.
Jeremiah Masoli will start at quarterback for the Lions, while Zach Collaros returns for Winnipeg after a one-game suspension for missing drug-testing compliance.
Lion linebacker Micah Awe highlighted the importance of containing Winnipeg's strong ground attack, noting that failure to do so would allow the opposing team to control the game as they please.
Both teams face challenges but have prepared accordingly, with coaches stressing roster readiness and strategic adjustments to alter the season series outcome.
