Henry Burris threw an 18-yard touchdown pass to Ernest Jackson in overtime and the Ottawa Redblacks won the Grey Cup on Sunday night, beating the Calgary Stampeders 39-33.
The third-year Redblacks won their first Canadian Football League title, and gave Ottawa its 10th championship. The Rough Riders won the last of their seven titles in 1976, and the Senators won in 1925 and 1926.
Calgary was favoured by double digits after finishing the regular season 15-2-1. The Redblacks, at 8-9-1, were the first team to finish first in a division with a losing record.
The 41-year-old Burris won the game MVP award for the second time. He also was the Grey Cup MVP with the Stampeders in 2008 in their victory over Montreal at Olympic Stadium. He was Jeff Garcia's backup with the 1998 champion Stampeders.
The Stampeders rallied from 20 points down and, after a successful onside kick, forced overtime on Rene Paredes' field goal with 10 seconds left in regulation. Bo Levi Mitchell threw three interceptions.
