Countdown to Kickoff: 3:00

Rider Nation Pregame show: 5:00

Opening Kickoff: 6:00

Game time weather in Calgary. +7, Partly Cloudy, SW 13-31 km/hr.

— A Bad Stop. Calgary has not historically been a good spot for the Roughriders as they’re 37-77-5 all time when playing in Calgary

— Nothing on the Line. This is the first time since the 1996 season that all of the CFL playoff matchups were decided before the final week of the season.

—  Lots of Work for a Road Trip. With a win, the Stampeders would become the second club in CFL history to win 12 games in a season, and not claim second place in their division. Edmonton won 12 games in 2017 and finished third.

— Second Season Streak. For the 17 consecutive season, the Stampeders have made the postseason which ties them for the fourth longest streak.

— Protection. Big difference in sacks allowed between the two clubs, Calgary has allowed 15 sacks all season, while Saskatchewan has allowed 71 this season

— Record Breaker. Riders Darnell Sankey leads the CFL with 115 tackles and is three away from breaking the Riders all time record.

— Young Canadian Star. Kian Schaffer-Baker is 65 yards from the 1,000. He would become the youngest Canadian receiver to accomplish that feat for Saskatchewan.

— Missing Duke. The Roughriders have gone 2-7 in Duke Williams absence. They were 4-4 before he was sidelined with an ankle injury.

— Special Teams Wonder. In 2022, there have been five onside kick recoveries. The Roughriders and the Stampeders are responsible for four of them this season.

— Stamps on a Roll. Calgary has won five of the last six meetings between the two teams.
