Revenge for THE Dynasty (48th Vanier Cup Review)

The Laval Rouge et Or went into the 48th Vanier Cup with a very clear goal in mind and that was to get some revenge for their loss in the 47th Vanier Cup a year ago.

The Marauders and Rouge et Or had met before in the 47th Vanier Cup in 2011 in what had become known as the Greatest Game Ever Played.

The similarities continued as the Mitchell and Uteck Bowls saw the McMaster Marauders and Laval Rouge et Or take the wins.

CIS football Report (47th Vanier Cup)

I have seen many football games in my time but I have never seen a game that was as good as the 47th Vanier Cup.

It all started before the ball was even kicked off as the game was built as a typical David vs. Goliath matchup.
