Looking Ahead
In their second meeting of the 2025 season, the Huskies and Golden Bears enter week six at opposites end of the Canada West standings. Saskatchewan currently holds the top spot in the conference after recording wins over Regina and Calgary following a road loss to Manitoba. Meanwhile, Alberta finds themselves in last place with just one win this season.
Saturday will serve as the second meeting between the two teams after the Huskies handed the Golden Bears a 29-20 loss in week one. The season-opening contest in Edmonton saw Alberta take a 15-17 halftime lead before the Huskies held the home team to just three points in the second half en route to the victory.
Saskatchewan returns to Griffiths coming off their best offensive performance of the season. In a 45-22 rout of the Calgary Dinos last week, the Dogs recorded 636 yards of total offence thanks to several outstanding performances. Fourth-year pivot

Through five games, Amundrud now leads the conference with 1,641 passing yards and 14 passing touchdowns while his favourtie target
Daniel Wiebe continues to establish himself as the conference's best pass catcher with 663 receiving yards and six touchdowns.
In the Alberta Golden Bears, the Huskies will take on a squad coming off their first win of the season after defeating the UBC Thunderbirds 38-18 last week at home. Despite their 1-4 record, the Golden Bears feature one of the more productive offences in the conference, producing 423.2 yards per game, including 302.8 through the air.
