2007 CFL Game Schedule Announced
February 14, 2007 - Canadian Football League (CFL) News Release
Montreal, QC (February 14, 2007) - The Canadian Football League (CFL) announced today the game schedule for the 2007 season, introducing a 19-week schedule that includes 18 regular-season games and one bye week for each team. Bye weeks will be taken consecutively by each division beginning with the East in Week 8, creating two weeks of divisional rivalry games.
This year's regular-season schedule kicks off on Canada Day weekend and includes the CFL's annual traditional rivalries - highlighted by the Labour Day and Thanksgiving Classics. The Canadian Football Hall of Game, this year featuring the Winnipeg Blue Bombers and the Hamilton Tiger-Cats on September 15, returns to Ivor Wynne Stadium on induction weekend as the CFL celebrates and honours its heroes and legends of the past.
The regular-season concludes with a triple-header on Saturday, November 3 as teams finalize post-season positioning before the Division Semi-Finals get underway eight days later on Sunday, November 11. The CFL's Division Championships will qualify this season's two Grey Cup competing teams one week later on November 18. The 2007 season will officially conclude with the 95th Grey Cup on Sunday, November 25th, returning to Toronto for the first time since 1992.
The broadcast component of the 2007 CFL Schedule will be announced in the near future.
