The Saskatchewan Roughriders are hoping for the same outcome while recognizing that absolute sameness will not suffice.

“There’s going to be some things that we ran last time that we’re going to run this time,” Jones said following Tuesday’s practice. “Are we going to have some things new? Yeah, we’re going to have some things new, and I’m sure that they’ll be the same. It comes down to execution.”

Saskatchewan and Hamilton are poised to complete a back-to-back set following a mutual bye week.

“They’ve had two weeks to prepare for us. We’ve done the same,” Jones said. “It’s not like they’re going to completely change their offence, and we’re not going to change our defence, and vice versa. We’re just going to line up and play the game.”
