TORONTO — The Toronto Argonauts became the first team to punch their ticket to the 110th Grey Cup playoffs on Saturday afternoon.

The Winnipeg Blue Bombers followed suit by beating the Saskatchewan Roughriders later in the afternoon to clinch their own post-season berth.

With their win against the Montreal Alouettes, the Boatmen have secured their spot in the post-season for the third season in a row.

The Winnipeg Blue Bombers will also return to the playoffs for the seventh straight season.

Here were the 110th Grey Cup playoff scenarios for Week 14:

WEST DIVISION

  • Winnipeg WIN = Winnipeg clinches a playoff spot

EAST DIVISION

  • Toronto WIN = Toronto clinches a playoff spot

NOTES

  • Winnipeg was looking to clinch a playoff berth for the seventh consecutive year
  • In 2022, Winnipeg clinched in Week 13
  • Toronto was in search of a third straight trip to the postseason
  • In 2022, Toronto clinched in Week 16

CROSSOVER RULE

If the fourth-place team in division A – A4 – has more points than the third-place team in division B – B3 (they cannot be tied), A4 will cross over and take the place of B3 in terms of playoff seeding. A4 will then compete against B2 in the division B semi-final.
