The special teams of the Laval University Rouge et Or stole the show in the victory against the McGill Redbirds in the second game of the calendar, but they were not as good on Sunday against the Montreal University Carabins.

Despite the two glaring errors at the end of the 4th quarter which led to ten points for the Carabins, Mathieu Bertrand retained the positive. “Before these two games, we played a very good game on special teams,” said the special teams coordinator. Vincent (Blanchard) was solid again and our coverage units performed well.
While the score was 21-14 at the end of the 4th quarter, returner Olivier Cool saw a clearance from Philippe Boyer slip through his arms. On the kickoff following Boyer’s 5th field goal of the day, the Rouge et Or fumbled and the Blues recovered the goal and scored their first offensive touchdown of the game a few plays later.
“Olivier saw a nice opening and he raised his head for a fraction of a second,” explained Bertrand. This is clearly visible on the film. This is a mistake that can happen to anyone. Due to the swirling wind, conditions were not easy for the turners. We even saw it with Carl Chabot who is a four-year veteran.
At the start of the week, Glen Constantin told us that he had sometimes been reluctant in the past to rely on a rookie as a returner because he feared for the protection of the ball.
The confidence of his trainer
Will we see any change during the next game next Saturday at Concordia against the Stingers? “Olivier is a young man full of talent and I have confidence in him,” declared the former star quarterback of the Rouge et Or. “When you fall off a horse, it is important to get back on as quickly as possible. I like to give confidence to my players and it is certain that Olivier will have feedback at Concordia.”
Starting for Sherbrooke in the first game of the season due in particular to the injury of veteran Alex Duff who has since returned to the game, Cool shined against McGill by completing an 81-yard punt return good for a touchdown in addition to catching his first career pass. His great speed had surprised some, including Constantin who did not believe that the product of the Nomades Montmorency was so fast.
In the fairly recent past, the Rouge et Or already counted on a rookie as a returner. “Antoine Dansereau-Leclerc was up for it from his first year,” Bertrand said. Antony Dufour has also been a quick starter in his career.
