HAMILTON 3 AT WINNIPEG 19
WINNIPEG -- Chris Garrett rushed 29 times for 190 yards and one touchdown as the Winnipeg Blue Bombers earned a trip to the Grey Cup with a 19-3 victory over the Hamilton Tiger-Cats in Sunday's CFL Eastern Final.
The Bombers will face the winner of the late afternoon Western Final between the B.C. Lions and the Edmonton Eskimos.
The 99th Grey Cup game is Nov. 27 in Vancouver.
Winnipeg will try to end a 20-season Grey Cup drought. The club's last win was in 1990, a 50-11 victory over Edmonton in Vancouver.
The Blue Bombers last played for the Grey Cup in 2007, when they lost 23-19 to the Saskatchewan Roughriders in Toronto.

EDMONTON 23 AT BC 40
VANCOUVER -- The B.C. Lions will get a chance to win the Grey Cup at home.
An interception by defensive back Korey Banks helped the Lions score two touchdowns in 2:26 of the second quarter as B.C. rolled over the Edmonton Eskimos 40-23 in the CFL West Final on Sunday.
Quarterback Travis Lulay shredded the Eskimo defence, throwing for 313 yards, a pair of touchdown passes and scoring on a 61-yard run in the fourth quarter.
Lulay hit slotback Geroy Simon on a 53-yard touchdown and tossed a 14-yard strike to running back Andrew Harris as the Lions broke open a close game with 20 points in the second quarter.
The Lions, who looked headed for disaster when they started the season 0-5, will face the Winnipeg Blue Bombers in next weekend's Grey Cup game at BC Place Stadium. The Bombers defeated the Hamilton Tiger-Cats 19-3 in the East Final.
Harris also scored on a 13-yard run, bringing a roar from a loud, horn-blowing crowd of 41,313 at BC Place. Simon finished with over 100 yards receiving.
