SASKATOON, Sask. – Lukas Scott connected on a 25-yard field goal with 25 seconds remaining to cap off a 16-point, fourth-quarter comeback for the University of Saskatchewan Huskies over the Regina Rams in the 88thBioSteel Hardy Cup.

 

The 25-24 victory at Griffiths Stadium in Nutrien Park marks the 22nd time in program history the Huskies emerge as conference champions.

 

With the win, the Huskies punch their ticket to the 2025 Mitchell Bowl and earn the right to host the Ontario University Athletics (OUA) Yates Cup champion Queen’s Gaels at home next Saturday, Nov. 15 at 2:15 p.m. CST.

 

“I’m really proud of this group,” said Huskie head coach Scott Flory, who led his team to a fourth Hardy Cup in eight seasons as the leader of the USask program. “[They are] a resilient group, been saying it all year. Super fun to coach, just never quit, never gave up.”

 

In addition to serving as a second win over the Rams in 2025, the victory marked the Huskies third over Regina in postseason history, while simultaneously avenging the Dogs’ loss to the Rams in the championship game a season ago.

 

Following the game quarterback Jake Farrell was named BioSteel Hardy Cup MVP. Completing 25 of 25 pass attempts, the local Saskatoon product threw for a season-high 356 yards and two touchdowns and added 16 yards on the ground.
