Saskatchewan faces Calgary in three straight games in October interrupted only by a bye week. It’s the first time since 1951 that a team plays the same opponent three games in a row in the regular season.
Calgary is in Regina next Saturday and in Vancouver to face the B.C. Lions (4-4) the following week.
The Stampeders, who were coming off a bye week, moved out of the West Division basement with Saturday’s win ahead of the Edmonton Elks (2-5).
