Well maybe Wally Buono did use his noggin afterall as he elected to kick a field goal with about 40 ticks remaining in regulation time as opposed to going for it on a 3rd and 10 situation and trailing by 10 points. As it turned out that successful field goal gave the BC Lions, a 4.5 point second half favorite, the second half cover as they outscored the visiting Edmonton Eskimoes 10-3.
The Lions had outscored the Eskimos by four points, just a half point shy of the -4.5 points needed for the cover, before Paul McCallum nailed the 40-yarder to seal the deal.
Congrats to all second half BC Lions backers.
