DB Carson Sombach
Carson Sombach had a run stop in the first quarter, provided good coverage on a short incompletion in the 2nd, and shared a run stop in the third. He had 3 good plays that stood out making tackles on short passes and another tackle on a run play.

Huskies to Watch
QB Anton Amundrud
The lesson in Amundrud’s first start should be that it’s okay to take a sack. He threw 3 interceptions and they were all on throws that were hurried in the face of pressure. Amundrud completed 18 of his 31 passes for 313 yards and 4 touchdowns. He also rushed twice for 29 yards with the longest being a 19-yard run breaking a tackle on the way. He had a good throw in a tight window to Daniel Perry for 14 yards down the middle. His best throw was in the face of pressure he placed a ball very well to Daniel Weibe down the right sideline for a 49-yard touchdown in the 4th quarter.
RBs Ted Kubongo and Ryker Frank
Ryker Frank had 12 rushes for 70 yards. He broke a tackle on a 7-yard run last week.
Ted Kubongo
had 11 rushes for 60 yards. He had a 9-yard run leaping over a defender toward the end. He also had a 5-yard run in which he broke 2 tackles.WR Daniel Perry
Perry had 5 catches for 150 yards and a touchdown. His biggest play was on a slant that he took to the endzone for a 90-yard touchdown.
WR Daniel Wiebe
Weibe had 3 catches for 63 yards and 2 touchdowns. He did a good job going up for 1 of his touchdowns in the back left of the end zone.
Weibe had 5 run stops, and a sack and helped with a couple of other tackles as well in week 1. Wiebe is ranked 15 on the CFL Scouting Bureau’s 2024 draft rankings currently.
LB Lane Novak
Novak had 3 quality run stops including a stop on 3rd and 1 in the 4th quarter. He had 1 QB pressure as well as a handful of tackles on other plays and had 7 solo tackles and 2 assisted tackles.
DB John Stoll
Stoll had a sack in the 2nd quarter, a pass breakup, and a run stop in the third quarter in addition to not allowing any big plays his way in coverage.
Idoko put pressure on the QB 4 times including a QB hit and a sack. He also had 2 quality run stops.
Prediction
If the Rams can get the run established and keep the defense honest I see the Rams having a chance in this game to surprise the Huskies. Armundrud is very early in his career as a starter and was thrown off his game in the face of a good pass rush. If Regina can establish the run and effectively rush the passer they will have a chance.
Last time these 2 teams met Saskatchewan won 23-20. Saskatchewan is the 2022 Vanier Cup winner and has a lot of its key pieces back this year. I predict Saskatchewan to win this game by a score of 27-20.
