  • The Northern 8 Series INTRODUCTION
    The Northern 8 series INTRODUCTION Inter-conference play has been part of Canadian university football for nearly eight decades. In the 1940’s teams from Eastern Canada toured the West, with the established teams from Central Canada winning by lopsided scores. In the late fifties and early sixties teams from Central Canada and the West made the first efforts toward a truly national championship. Early Churchill Bowls featured inter-conference exhibitions. During this time, Atlantic teams had their invitations accepted from teams in Central Canada. In 1959, the Churchill Bowl was billed as “the first Dominion championship” featuring the UBC Thunderbirds and the Western Ontario Mustangs. In 1963, the Alberta Golden Bears hosted the Queen’s Golden Gaels in the “Golden Bowl” for the Lieutenant- Governor’s Trophy. The cancellation of a scheduled invitational national championship in 1964 gave way to the creation of the Vanier Cup in 1965. In the modern era of the game there have been numerous examples of interlocking and inter-conference play. Teams have played in two conferences in the same season. The OQIFC played partial interlocks in the 1970’s. Since 2002, the RSEQ has played an interlocking schedule with the AUS. Laval hosts a team from the Canada West or OUA every year as an exhibition. In all of those cases, there has been nothing more than a local marketing push surrounding these games. Television and its’ potential reach have never been factored into a national brand during the regular season. 2014 was the first year since the 1950’s that Ontario university football was not covered on a weekly basis TV either regionally or nationally.
