Jan 9, 2008 - 5:52 PM REGINA, Saskatchewan (Ticker) -- Kerry Joseph threw a pair of first-half scores to help the Saskatchewan Roughriders build an early lead en route to a 33-22 victory over the Montreal Alouettes on Saturday.Joseph hit Andy Fantuz and D.J. Flick for second-quarter scores and Luca Gongi kicked a 37-yard field goal as time expired, as the Roughriders scored 19 unanswered points and took a 19-4 lead at halftime.
Joseph completed 26-of-40 passes for 355 yards and three scores with one interception for Saskatchewan (8-5), which beat Montreal twice in a season for the first time since 1997.
The Roughriders dominated the first half, outgaining the Alouettes, 308-130, and picked up where they left off in the second half.
Corey Holmes opened the third quarter with a 1-yard run that made the score, 26-4. After a field goal from Damon Duval cut the lead to 26-7, Holmes caught a 16-yard pass from Joseph to make it 33-7.
Montreal (6-7) scored two late touchdowns as Jarrett Payton, the son of the late Walter Payton, ran in from a yard out and Anthony Cavillo threw a 15-yard score to Kerry Watkins.
Anthony Calvillo finished 27-of-41 for 410 yards and one touchdown.
