David aims to take down Goliath as Roughriders face Lions

Saturday night will be a battle of worst against first in the West division as the Saskatchewan Roughriders welcome the first place BC Lions to Mosiac Stadium.

Despite being winless, the Roughriders have allowed the third fewest points in the league, losing two closely contested games to the Toronto Argonauts and the Edmonton Eskimos. The Lions were also defeated by the Argonauts, but own wins against the Hamilton Tiger-Cats and the Calgary Stampeders.

Both Darian Durant and Jonathan Jennings have posted similar numbers throughout the season thus far and neither have been overly dominant. Durant is yet to throw an interception since making his return from a lost season a year ago due to injury.

The Lions' running game has been well-shared, as Jeremiah Johnson and Anthony Allen both have recorded over 100 yards on the ground thus far. The Lions have the statistical advantage on the offensive side of the ball, with Curtis Steele and Ricky Collins being the Roughriders' primary rusher and receiver thus far.

BC has not lost on the road this season, and Saskatchewan does not have a win this season, so the Roughriders are looking to take two birds down with one stone.
