Lions 31, Eskimos 21: Running back Andrew Harris ran for 103 yards and three touchdowns on 17 carries as BC used a strong second half to extend its regular-season home winning streak to eight games.

Quarterback Travis Lulay was 18-for-24 for 284 yards as the Lions (3-1) limited Edmonton to 24 points in a home-and-home series sweep. Lulay found wide receiver Emmanuel Arceneaux five times for 106 yards and a touchdown.

Quarterback Mike Reilly was limited to 152 yards on 12-of-20 passing and didn’t finish the game for the Eskimos (1-3), who once again struggled to establish consistency on offence. Wide receiver Nate Coehoorn caught six passes for 103 yards and slotback Fred Stamps caught a 12-yard touchdown pass from backup quarterback Jonathan Crompton with 1:09 remaining.

Lulay connected with Arceneaux for a 77-yard touchdown to break a 10-10 tie 3:32 into the second half. Harris added his second rushing touchdown from a yard out with 5:11 left in the third quarter to extend BC’s advantage.

Reilly, who was limited by what appeared to be a sore elbow on his throwing arm, threw an errant pass while under pressure on his own goal line with 4:30 remaining in the fourth quarter and was intercepted by defensive end Jabar Westerman. Harris scored his third touchdown - a 4-yarder - on the ensuing drive.
