Guelph battled last night. But Western is up there with Laval for being, historically, nearly impossible to beat in its own barn. (With help from Canada’s top cheer team + band.) Stangs haven’t lost a regular-season home game since Oct. 4, 2014. 🎥 Mikayla Fiasche/Western Mustangs Football

Shutting Sunday night down like your grandma’s bingo hall, Canadian Akheem Mesidor (Akheem Mesidor) got in the face of Notre Dame’s QB twice after the Ottawa native overwhelmed the Irish’s top-ranked OL in the final 2 plays. The U is back. This Miami DL is a PROBLEM. 🎥 ESPN College Football

Canadian Antwan Raymond (Antwan Raymond.) is making an early case for the The Cornish Trophy supported by Krown. The Montrealer kicked off his Rutgers CFB season ranking Top-5 in yards after contact (68), missed tackles forced (6) and 10+ yard carries (3) among Big Ten RBs (via PFF). 🎥 Rutgers Football 🪓

Canadian OLs Albert Reese IV (Albert Reese IV 🇨🇦🇺🇸) and Logan Taylor (Logan Taylor) didn’t allow a single QB pressure in their respective starts to the college football season (via PFF). Reese’s Mississippi State and Taylor’s Boston College enter Week 2 at 1–0. 📸 Mississippi State Football


Canadian RB Brady Oliveira (Brady Oliveira 🏈 🐶) has been more active in the Blue Bombers’ aerial attack this CFL season. Winnipeg’s hometown hero is 4th in the league in yards after catch (319), highlighting the danger he poses on these screen passes. 🎥 CFL on TSN via CFL

In last season’s NFL playoffs, Canadian OL Alaric Jackson (Alaric Jackson) allowed just 1 pressure (a hurry) on 51 pass plays in a narrow 28–22 road loss to the Eagles (via PFF). It was Philly's closest playoff game en route to winning the Super Bowl with a bulldozing DL. 📸 Los Angeles Rams


Like his country in WWI, Canadian Akheem Mesidor (Akheem Mesidor) dominated the trenches for Miami in Week 1 of college football. Against Notre Dame’s top-ranked OL, Ottawa’s own won 37.5% of his pass rush reps — #1 among P4 DLs w/ 20+ pass rush snaps (via PFF). 📸 Miami Hurricanes Football


Canadian Wesley Bailey (Wesley Bailey) earned his 1st sack of the college football season in Louisville’s Friday night W over JMU. But for the Ottawa native, it means a little more than just a tick on the stat sheet. 🎥 Preston Harvey

Gonna need the MPH on this. Even the safety got caught looking. Canadian TE Rohan Jones (Rohan Jones) flexed his speed in his first TD of the season for Arkansas and 17th of his college career. 🎥 Arkansas Razorback Football

I can already hear Kieran Drover bursting a blood vessel while opening a giant bag of Kernels Popcorn. 🍿 I guess that means NFL football is back.

The fun police ruled this an incomplete pass on Saturday, but let’s pretend it wasn’t: Canadian Nuer Gatkuoth (Nuer Gatkuoth) leverages his pterodactyl wingspan with a 1-arm stab & rip on the LT, strip-sacks the QB in 2 secs AND recovers the fumble — if only it counted. 🎥 Wake Forest Football

Rutgers’ first 2 sacks of the college football season were courtesy of Canadians Dariel Djabome (dariel djabome) and Djibril Abdou Rahman (Djibril Abdou Rahman). The pair from the Montreal area got in the QB’s face within 2 plays of each other in Saturday’s W. 📸 Rutgers Football 🪓


Canada’s “RB U” is still in London, in case you forgot. Against Ottawa, Western RB Ethan Dolby averaged 14 yards per carry on 13 rushes. That average is well over a first down every time he touches the ball. The backfield legacy lives on. 🎥 Ontario University Athletics via Ryan O’Connor

Summer’s over, but this Canadian sophomore keeps putting grown men on a slip-and-slide. Through Week 2, Montreal native Antwan Raymond (Antwan Raymond.) has forced 17 missed tackles — more than any other Big Ten RB to start the college football season (via PFF). 🎥 Big Ten Football
