It’s the opening weekend for the 2008 Canadian Interuniversity Sport football season and it only took one game for magic to occur; the Simon Fraser University Clan won a football game and snapped their 25 game winless streak.

For those of you interested in seeing highlights, SFU has uploaded them to YouTube.

While SFU fans may think 25 games is a bad losing streak, University of Toronto fans must be praying for divine intervention.

The UofT Varsity Blues have lost all of their last 49 games and have been setting the CIS record for a losing streak ever since their defeat last October against the University of Western Ontario Mustangs. Their last win came in 2001 when they beat the Windsor Lancers 13-11.
