Summary
Edmonton Elks pull off a heart-pounding 36-34 thriller over Saskatchewan Roughriders, capped by Vincent Blanchard’s 57-yard game-winner as time expires. Cody Fajardo shredded defenses for 510 yards and 4 TDs, including a stunning 81-yard strike to Austin Mack, who also scored on a 57-yard TD. Saskatchewan’s Alex Hale kept them close with two clutch FGs, but missed a 46-yarder with 3 minutes left — giving Edmonton the chance they seized. The Elks improve to 6-1, their best start since 2017, while the Riders fall to 4-2. Emotional pre-game tributes added weight to a fiercely contested West Division showdown — and these rivals are already primed for round two.
