UBC Thunderbirds announced the schedule which doesn\u0027t include a grudge match versus their crosstown rivals SFU
UBC finished 4-4 in the seven-team Canada West regular season last year, beat the Regina Rams 28-14 on the road in the conference semifinals and then lost 23-8 to the Saskatchewan Huskies on the road in the Canada West finale.
UBC’s home opener is Sept. 9 versus the Calgary Dinos. They play home-and-home sets with Calgary, Alberta, and Regina and have single games with Saskatchewan and the Manitoba Bisons. SFU alums and football stakeholders haven’t given up the fight for the program. They held a fundraising drive on Tuesday, with Lions owner Amar Doman leading the charge. On Wednesday former SFU stars including Lui Passaglia, Sean Millington and Doug Brown said that they wanted their names removed from the SFU sports hall of fame. On May 1, there’s court case, with SFU players trying to get an injunction to keep the program alive.
