RECAP: Huskies smother Bisons in second half (stats)

Capitalizing on four second half turnovers, the No. 10 University of Saskatchewan Huskies rallied past the visiting No. 6 University of Manitoba Bisons 44-24 Friday night at Saskatoon’s Griffiths Stadium.

Mark Ingram accounted for two interceptions in the turnover count, while Keegan Arnyek added another. Andrew Abbs got the Huskies first turnover of the half with a fumble recovery on a punt cover.

Saskatchewan quarterback Drew Burko finished the night 25-for-41 with 232 yards and four touchdowns. Mitch Hillis was Burko’s top target with 54 yards on eight catches. Shane Buchanan racked up 88 yards on the ground.

Jordan Yantz completed 20-of-38 passes for 310 yards and two touchdowns for the Bisons. Alex Vitt led the Bisons receiving core with six receptions. Kienan LaFrance gained 70 yards and a touchdown on 15 attempts.

The crowd of 8121, 3,683 of them students, on hand for the homecoming game was the second highest attendance for the Huskies in a Canada West conference game and third most in the conference. The Huskies continue their streak of strong Canada West starts, having not lost an opener since 2002.

Saskatchewan will travel to face the Alberta Golden Bears (0-1) next Saturday, while Manitoba hosts the Regina Rams (1-0).
