The issues in the AUS certainly didn’t help to get a struggling conference back on their feet on the national stage as powerhouses are back in U sports and two of them will face off for the ultimate prize after the National Bowls.

The National Playoffs looked like they were all set until a situation broke out in the east coast causing a bit of a strange circumstance for one of the country’s smaller divisions and leaving things up in the air heading into the semi-final bowl games.

One of the Big Four in the league has fallen and in their place is another powerhouse that is used to winning games. The Saint Mary’s Huskies have regularly challenged the Acadia Axemen for the AUS title year after year. They are a part of one of the biggest battles in the CIS with the Huskies and the Axemen continually up for the Jewett Trophy. You have to go back to 1997 to find another team that won the Jewett Trophy not named the Huskies or the Axemen.

I have said many times before that winning consistently in college football is the hardest thing to do because of how teams are made. In college football teams are only together for a limited time as they come in to the school and then graduate. In the CIS there are only a maximum of 5 years for every player to play on any team as after that they no longer have eligibility.

CIS Football was officially in playoff mode this week as every conference held the semi-finals of their conference. It is the best time of year as the best teams face off with everything on the line. If they lose they go home with nothing but a playoff spot to boast about but if they win they live to fight another day in the CIS season. The regular season doesn’t matter in the playoffs besides the deciding what field you play on.
