1976 GREY CUP GAME AT TORONTO (Sunday, November 28 - 53,467)
OTTAWA ROUGH RIDERS 23, SASKATCHEWAN ROUGHRIDERS 20 - Ottawa got a Gerry Organ FG in the fourth quarter, but was later stopped on a last minute goal line stand by Saskatchewan and trailed 20-16. They got the ball back with little time remaining, and found themselves on the Green Rider 24 yard line with 20 seconds left. Down by 4 points, Ottawa quarterback Tom Clements waved off the play from the bench. TE Tony Gabriel headed towards the end zone and faked a post pattern and turned to the corner. Unfortunately for Ted Provost, he fell for the fake. Gabriel's big hands brought down Clement's pass, with Provost and Ray Odums streaking to catch up. It was a spectacular play, both in its execution, game winning importance, and in the dramatic way Gabriel's fake unfolded. The play is often simply referred to as "The Catch".
