Blue Bombers beat Lions to secure franchise-record 4th straight Grey Cup berth

Brady Oliveira rushed for 109 yards and one touchdown while Nick Hallett blocked a punt and scored to help propel the Blue Bombers to a franchise-record fourth straight Grey Cup appearance after a 24-13 victory over the B.C. Lions in Saturday's CFL West Division final.

Winnipeg will face Montreal in the 110th Grey Cup on Nov. 19 in Hamilton after the Alouettes upset the Toronto Argonauts 38-17 in the East final.

The Bombers will try to win a third championship in four appearances after losing last year's title game 24-23 to the Argonauts. Winnipeg won the Cup in 2021 and 2019. The league didn't play in 2020 because of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Winnipeg quarterback Zach Collaros completed 14 of 21 pass attempts for 158 yards with no interceptions in front of a fifth straight sellout of 32,343 fans at IG Field. He was sacked twice.
