Kelly was particularly comfortable, throwing for 321 yards, two touchdowns and one interception as the Boatmen went to 2-1. He is now 4-0 against Saskatchewan career. Kelly’s counterpart Trevor Harris tossing for 409 yards for the Green & White, with two TDs and one INT.
The Double Blue was in control throughout, leading 10-0, 20-17, and 30-24 by quarter, and they won the turnover battle 2-1. The attendance was listed at 25.035.
In the absence of power back A.J. Ouellette for Saskatchewan, replacement Quali Conley was the team’s leading rusher with 50 yards while KeeSean Johnson was the leading receiver with 112 yards.
Kicker Alex Hale went 2-2 on field goals.
Saskatchewan visits Ottawa in Week 5 while Toronto visits Calgary.
