Blue Bombers survive scare to down Stampeders, remain perfect

Carlton Agudosi caught two touchdown passes in his CFL debut to help the Winnipeg Blue Bombers remain the league's only unbeaten team after a tense 26-19 victory over the Calgary Stampeders on Friday.

The six-foot-six Agudosi caught a 16-yard TD pass from quarterback Zach Collaros late in the third quarter, and then leapt in the corner of the end zone for a 10-yard score with 3:56 remaining in the fourth.

The Bombers moved to 6-0 in the standings in front of a season-high 29,746 fans at IG Field. It's the first time they've opened a season 6-0 since 1960. Their home win streak also bumped up to 13 games (including the playoffs).

Calgary started at Winnipeg's 53-yard line with 1:25 remaining, but Bo Levi Mitchell was sacked right away by defensive end Willie Jefferson. The drive ended with a pass to Calgary receiver Kamar Jorden bouncing out of his hands in the end zone and into the palms of Bombers' defensive back Demerio Houston.

Agudosi, a native of Somerset, N.J., finished with six catches for 70 yards. Bombers receiver Greg Ellingson had 11 receptions for 152 yards.
