Now it's Travis Lulay's turn to try and accomplish something no other CFL quarterback has been able to: Go on the road and beat the Hamilton Tiger-Cats.
Lulay and the B.C. Lions (3-3) face Hamilton (4-2) at Tim Hortons Field on Saturday night. The Ticats improved to 9-0 at the facility Sunday night with a convincing 38-8 decision over the Winnipeg Blue Bombers.

Hamilton's defence has been stellar this year, standing tied for second overall in interceptions (seven) and third in fewest points allowed (21.2 per game). But the unit has been especially stingy at Tim Hortons Field.
Hamilton has allowed just 126 points since moving in last September, an average of 14 per game. The Ticats have also outscored their opponents 242-126 there, including 77-13 in the fourth quarter.
Hamilton's defence was especially tenacious against Winnipeg, recording seven sacks. Defensive end Justin Hickman led the way with three sacks while defensive back Emanuel Davis celebrated his 26th birthday by returning two interceptions for touchdowns.
The Ticats would also appear to have recent history on their side as the home team has won eight straight games and 16 of the last 20 overall in the CFL. East Division squads are also 10-6 versus their West Division rivals this season.
B.C. does come in on a winning note, outscoring the Edmonton Eskimos 16-0 in the second half en route to a come-from-behind 26-23 home victory. Lulay was 16-of-31 passing for 196 yards and two TDs with two interceptions.
But it was Lions running back Andrew Harris who stole the show, rushing for 118 yards rushing on 20 carries with a TD while adding four catches for 57 yards and a touchdown.
The five-foot-11, 213-pound Harris, a native of Winnipeg, leads the CFL in rushing with 519 yards and four touchdowns and has cracked the 100-yard rushing barrier his last two games. Harris has also registered 26 catches for 288 yards and two TDs.
However, Hamilton has allowed 100 yards rushing once at Tim Hortons Field and surrendered just eight TDs overall there. There's something about the stadium that brings out the best in the Ticats.
