Riders victorious over Bombers in annual Banjo Bowl

Brett Lauther connected on all five field goal attempts to boost the Saskatchewan Roughriders to a 21-13 victory over the Winnipeg Blue Bombers in Saturday's Banjo Bowl.

Lauther, who went into the game only making 65.7 per cent of his field-goal attempts (23 of 35), was good on kicks from 20, 35 (twice), 41 and 33 yards. He missed a convert.

The win lifted the Roughriders' CFL-leading record to 10-2, the first time they've hit the 10-win mark since 2019 when they finished 13-5 and lost the West Division final to Winnipeg.

The Blue Bombers (6-6) held a 13-6 lead at halftime, but their fortunes turned with an injury to starting quarterback Zach Collaros.

Collaros left the game with 5:28 left in the third quarter after being sacked by Saskatchewan defensive back C.J. Reavis and fumbling the ball.

Collaros didn't get up for a few minutes, but did jog to the dressing room to cheers from the 11th consecutive sellout crowd of 32,343 at Princess Auto Stadium.

The play was successfully challenged by Winnipeg for roughing the passer and the turnover was wiped out.

Collaros had completed nine of 15 pass attempts for 165 yards with two interceptions and one touchdown. He was replaced by Chris Streveler, who was 5-of-9 passing for 39 yards and two picks.

Trevor Harris was 18-of-31 for 239 yards with one interception for Saskatchewan.

Running back A.J. Ouellette had 11 carries for 50 yards and the Riders' lone five-yard touchdown run.

Winnipeg running back Brady Oliveira, who was held to 24 yards on five carries in Saskatchewan's 34-30 Labour Day Classic win last weekend, rushed 20 times for 83 yards and had two catches for 19 yards.

Ontaria Wilson, the Blue Bombers' most outstanding rookie last season, led all receivers with five
