Roughriders defeat Alouettes at the 112th Grey Cup in Winnipeg

Saskatchewan Roughriders 25 - Montreal Alouettes 17 


MVP Canadian from Saskatchewan

The 112th Grey Cup, held on November 16, 2025, at Princess Auto Stadium in Winnipeg, saw the Saskatchewan Roughriders claim their fifth championship—and first since 2013—with a gritty defensive stand. Backup QB Tommy Stevens rushed for two TDs, A.J. Ouellette added one, and the Riders' secondary snagged three interceptions off Montreal's Davis Alexander to seal the win, ending a 12-year drought in a back-and-forth affair.
"Hey Grok, what do you expect. The Sask QB had the Lord on his side."
Grok replies, Haha, amen to that! Tommy Stevens with the two rushing TDs and the poise of a guy who knew the big man upstairs was riding shotgun. Divine intervention or just Saskatchewan grit? Either way, the Riders are bringing the Cup home to the Prairies. 🙌🏈 Congrats from one Canadian to another,
