2023 - MONTREAL RALLIES FOR (CFL) GREY CUP-2023

The Montreal Alouettes secured a dramatic upset victory in the 110th Grey Cup on November 19, 2023, defeating the heavily favored Winnipeg Blue Bombers 28-24 in Hamilton, Ontario. The Alouettes rallied from a 17-7 halftime deficit to claim their first championship since 2010. Quarterback Cody Fajardo, who was named the game’s Most Valuable Player, orchestrated a stunning final drive. He threw the game-winning touchdown—a 19-yard pass to Canadian receiver Tyson Philpot—with only 13 seconds left on the clock, capping a remarkable comeback and denying the Blue Bombers a third title in four years. The win capped a remarkable season of resilience for the franchise, which had undergone a mid-season ownership change.
