  • Calgary-Laval Rematch Headlines 52Nd Arcelormittal Dofasco Vanier Cup
    Calgary-Laval rematch headlines 52nd ArcelorMittal Dofasco Vanier Cup Nov 21, 2016 By Alexander Cole, U Sports Correspondent After 13 exciting weeks of U Sports football, the 52nd ArcelorMittal Dofasco Vanier Cup, which will be held on Nov. 26 at Tim Hortons Field in Hamilton, Ont., will come down to a match between the Université de Laval Rouge et Or and the University of Calgary Dinos. The Rouge et Or, who will be appearing in their tenth Vanier Cup match since 1999, were a force to be reckoned with all season, finishing with a record of 7-1. The team was ranked first in the nation by the U Sports top 10, and placed second in the RSEQ conference, just behind their rivals, the Université de Montréal Carabins. Throughout their playoff run, Laval has demonstrated why they are one of the best teams in the nation. In the RSEQ semifinals, the Rouge et Or made quick work of the Concordia Stingers, with a 39-14 victory. The following week, the team narrowly edged the Carabins 20-17 in the Dunsmore Cup championship, thanks to a last minute trick play which saw quarterback Hugo Richard catch the game-winning touchdown. In their most recent contest on Saturday, the Rouge et Or blew out the Laurier Golden Hawks in the Uteck bowl. The Golden Hawks, who were coming off a thrilling comeback victory against the Western Mustangs in the Yates Cup, were no match for the No.1-ranked Rouge et Or, dismantling Laurier 36-6 with Richard passing for two touchdowns and rushing for one.

    all wiz khalifa songs free download 100% Free Wiz Khalifa Albums, Music and Songs. Wiz Khalifa or Cameron Jibril Thomaz was born on September 8th, 1987 in Minot, North Dakota. Both of Khalifa’s parents were stationed there while in the military. At a very young age, his parents divorced and he was bounced between a few different areas of the world because he was living with parents who were in the military. This caused Khalifa to move around frequently, he lived in Germany, England, and Japan before he was able to finally settle down in the Pittsburgh area and go to school. This was a lot of movement for a young man, but through it all, he managed to make music a part of his life. For Khalifa, he got his name from two different things. As a child, he was actually nicknamed the “young Wiz” because he was good at everything. He also had a Muslim uncle that my have been the reason why he picked Khalifa, which in Arabic means successor and wisdom. This name seems to fit him well as he really has started to gain popularity in the music industry. He was about to see growth and see success in the thing that he really loved, his music. The first thing that Wiz Khalifa did in the music industry was to release a mixtape that was called Prince of the City: Welcome to Pistolvania . This was released in 2005 and actually was the reason why he was able to produce and release his first full length album in 2006 that was called Show and Prove .
