Cahoon's field goal gives Argonauts OT win

Jan 9, 2008 - 5:29 PM MONTREAL (Ticker) -- Ben Cahoon kicked a 22-yard field goal in overtime to give the Toronto Argonauts a 29-27 victory over the Montreal Alouettes on Thursday.

A slotback, Cahoon was pressed into service after regular kicker Damon Duval was ejected during a fight.

Toronto's Dominique Dorsey tied teammate Bashir Levingston's league record when he returned a missed field goal 129 yards for a touchdown midway through the fourth quarter.

Making his first start since the season opener, quarterback Damon Allen was 2-of-4 for 18 yards before leaving in the second quarter with a toe injury for the Argonauts (2-4).

Rocky Butler replaced Allen and helped Toronto rally from a 19-3 halftime deficit despite throwing four interceptions. Three were on consecutive passes, while one was returned 66 yards for a touchdown by Chip Cox, opening a 26-10 lead for the Alouettes (3-3) three minutes into the final quarter.

However, Dorsey started the Argonauts' rally with his spectacular return, Noel Prefontaine kicked a 39-yard field goal at 9:01 of the fourth and Andre Durie scored from a yard out with 1:27 left to tie the game.
