The Calgary Stampeders took the dress rehearsal, and now they'll set their sights on the real thing.

With postseason seeding already determined, the Stampeders easily handled the BC Lions 28-7 on Saturday, in a preview of next week's West Division semifinal.

Stampeders quarterback Drew Tate completed 18-of-22 passes for a game-high 231 yards, and two touchdowns. Anthony Parker had 122 yards on four catches, including a touchdown, and Lemar Durant finished with two touchdowns on three catches for 45 yards.

In possibly his final regular season start with the Lions, Travis Lulay was 14-of-20 for 181 yards as the Lions' offence failed to score single point. Receiver Terence Jeffers-Harris finished with a team-high 78 yards on three catches. The Lions' only points came courtesy of two field goals and a single from kicker Anthony Fera.

The Lions will travel to Calgary next week for the West semifinal on Nov 15.
