WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW
The two most decorated programs in the CIS will clash at the UVic Turf Field when the Vikes and T-Birds go head-to-head. Only the Thunderbirds boast more national championships than the Vikes 11 McCrae Cups with UBC capturing their 12th in a 6-1 rout of Alberta in the 2009 championship game.
