Tre Ford, Marc Liegghio lead Hamilton Tiger-Cats to 35-22 win over Ottawa Redblacks
Tre Ford's passing and kicking prowess, coupled with Marc Liegghio's field goal mastery, propelled the Hamilton Tiger-Cats to a 35-22 victory over the Ottawa Redblacks on Saturday. Ford completed two touchdown passes and ran for 52 yards, while Liegghio kicked a remarkable seven field goals, falling one short of the club record.
The Ticats (6-12) secured their second win in their final eight games, both against Ottawa. The loss marked Ottawa's (1-17) 23rd defeat in 24 games since last season. Bryson Barnes and Jake Maier contributed significantly to the Redblacks' effort, with Barnes throwing 339 yards and two touchdowns in his second CFL start. Despite committing four turnovers, including a fumble, a two-interception loss, and a partially blocked punt that Hamilton capitalized on, Ottawa couldn't overcome the dominant performance from the home team.
