Backup quarterback Nick Arbuckle threw for a pair of touchdowns and the Toronto Argonauts ripped off 24 factors within the fourth quarter to defeat the Winnipeg Blue Bombers 41-24 on Sunday in Vancouver, giving them their nineteenth Gray Cup title in franchise historical past.
Arbuckle stepped beneath middle to switch Chad Kelly, who broke his leg in grotesque trend throughout a 30-28 victory over the Montreal Alouettes within the East Division closing. The second-string signal-caller was picked off twice on Sunday, however he accomplished 26 of 37 passes for 252 yards.
Toronto has come away with a championship in every of its previous eight appearances within the Gray Cup.
Blue Bombers quarterback Zach Collaros could not determine the Argonauts’ protection, tossing 4 interceptions. He completed with 202 yards on 15-of-30 passing. Brady Oliveira racked up 84 yards and a rating on 11 carries for Winnipeg.
Linebacker Robert Priester put the sport away for Toronto, intercepting a Collaros move and returning it 61 yards to the top zone with 3:12 left within the fourth quarter.
