Calgary, AB (SportsNetwork.com) - Jon Cornish bulled his way into the end zone from four yards out with less than two minutes remaining in the fourth quarter to give the Calgary Stampeders a thrilling 29-25 win over the Saskatchewan Roughriders at McMahon Stadium.

Cornish, who was helped over the goal line by a number of teammates, finished the contest with 100 yards on the ground. Quarterbacks Kevin Glenn and Drew Tate combined to throw for more than 300 yards and while the former did toss a TD to Anthony Parker in the second quarter, he also tossed an interception and was sacked three times on the night.

With their fifth straight win and the ninth in the last 10 outings overall, the Stampeders (14-3) captured the West Division title.

Saskatchewan (11-6), which will finish second in the division standings with one more regular season game to play, watched signal caller Darian Durant throw for less than 200 yards while being sacked seven times as the team saw a three-game win streak come to an end.

The all-time series now stands at 121-89-9 in favor of Calgary, taking into account only regular-season matchups dating back to 1946. The Stamps posted a 42-27 win at home over Saskatchewan in Week 7, five weeks after the Riders logged a 36-21 victory in the first meeting of the season.
