REGINA - Drew Tate put the Calgary Stampeders on his back and carried them into the playoffs. Enrique Hernandez Jersey .Tate drove into the end zone with 34 seconds left to play as Calgary earned a 31-24 victory over Tino Sunseri and the Saskatchewan Roughriders on Friday.Tates one-yard touchdown plunge proved to be the winning score, one that crushed any hopes of an improbable Roughriders comeback win.When it came down to it and we needed to drive the field, we did it. Thats what you have to do, said Tate, who marched the Stamps 85 yards on the winning drive and improved his teams record to 12-2.(The coaches) wanted to kneel it down, but Dave (Dickenson, offensive co-ordinator) changed his mind. Thats playing aggressive football, Tate said. I wanted the offence to end it.The decisive drive evaporated three minutes from the clock and killed the momentum Saskatchewan had built in the second half. The Riders record slipped to 9-5.That last drive, our defence played well and we just couldnt stop them at the end, said Saskatchewan safety Tyron Brackenridge. They executed and we didnt.Tate finished the night 16-for-29 passing for 194 yards and two touchdowns. He also rushed for two scores.With the win, the Stampeders became the first team in the CFL to clinch a playoff berth this season.Thats the first step to where we wanted to go, said linebacker Juwan Simpson. But weve been here before. Ive been in this league for seven years and Ive been (in the playoffs) a lot of times with only one championship ring to show for it.If we dont get a Grey Cup this year its going to be a failure, point blank, period. We play this game for no other reason. We dont play to just make the playoffs. Our goal is to win a championship, and making the playoffs is just one step toward that goal.The Stamps may be without running back Jon Cornish. The CFLs leading rusher did not play in the second half because of an undisclosed injury. Cornish rushed for 74 yards on 11 carries in the first half.Sunseri caught fire after halftime and erased a 24-0 deficit in bringing the Roughriders even at 24-24 with nine minutes remaining in the fourth quarter. Saskatchewans 10-play, 101-yard game-tying score was punctuated with Jerome Messams one-yard touchdown run and Anthony Allens two-point convert.Sunseri relieved an ineffective Seth Doege midway through the second quarter and nearly completed a spirited comeback. It was Sunseri who led the Riders to a thrilling overtime win over the Ottawa Redblacks two weeks ago, a game in which the Riders trailed 22-10 at the half.On Friday, Saskatchewan was down 9-0 at halftime and 24-0 late in the third quarter before the offence got on track.Dan DePalma broke a Riders scoring drought of six and a half quarters when he raced 66 yards for a touchdown. Sunseri had a one-yard touchdown run on the Riders next possession, with Weston Dressler adding two-point converts on each score to make it 24-16 after three quarters.Whenever you put yourself in a 24-0 deficit, even though were not the type of team thats going to quit, youre not doing yourself any favours against a good football team, said Roughriders receiver Rob Bagg. The good news is we continued to stick together.Sunseris final line was 16-for-19 passing for 289 yards and one touchdown. He rushed for 21 yards.For Saskatchewan, the Seth Doege experiment fell flat rather quickly.Making his first start in the CFL, Doeges night was finished midway through the second quarter after he threw his third interception of the first half. The rookie completed 3-of-9 pass attempts for 28 yards. He also lost a fumble.Since 2012, the Riders are 26-16 in games started by Darian Durant. They are 2-6 without Durant in the lineup. Durant isnt eligible to return to the Riders lineup until at least the Oct. 24 contest in Calgary, if he returns at all this season. He had surgery last month to repair a torn tendon in right elbow.Calgary is 10-2 in its last 12 meetings with Saskatchewan.

ORLANDO, Fla. -- The Orlando Magic finally are showing the patience in critical moments that coach Jacque Vaughn has been waiting for all season. The Magic fought off repeated challenges from the Brooklyn Nets, many of them in the final two minutes, to claim a 115-111 victory over a playoff-bound team. It was the second win a row where Orlando executed better than its opponent in the final minutes of a close game. "Were continuing to learn at the end of games and not panic," Vaughn said. "I want these guys to enjoy what they do for a living. We come to work, we get better. Thats what we do." Arron Afflalo scored five of his 25 points in the final two minutes. Jameer Nelson was 4 of 4 from the free throw line in the final 13 seconds and Kyle OQuinn had a key assist and block as Orlando made every play it needed to stop the Nets. Reserve ETwaun Moore made all six shots, five of them 3-pointers, to tie his season high of 17 points. Tobias Harris added 16 points and eight rebounds. "We are better in close games and it shows the maturity and confidence were gaining as a group," Afflalo said. "The Nets are one of the hottest teams since the new year and we got good performances from a lot of our role players." The Magic needed a lot at both ends in the second half to stop a hot-shooting Brooklyn team that was making shots from everywhere. Joe Johnson led the Nets with 31 points, but had a potential game-tying 3-pointer blocked by Quinn with 10 seconds left in the game. Mirza Teletovic, who was 1 for 10 from the field in the first half, hit four 3-pointers in the third period to start the Nets on their way to 23 of 37 (62.2 per cent) shooting in the second half. Teletovic finished with 17 points and nine rebounds. Mason Plumlee had 16 points and Marcus Thornton 13 off the bench for Brooklyn, which played without injured starters Paul Pierce and Shaun Livingston. "At the end, we executed offensively, but defensively, we didnt," Nets coach Jason Kidd said. "We pretty much had five guards out there, playing Joe at the centre. We probably put him in a bad way, trying to make a 3 on a 7-footer (OQuinn). Yasiel Puig Jersey. . As coaches we can get better. This was a learning experience." The Magic led 107-101 after Afflalos 3-pointer with 1:58 left in the game, but Brooklyn cut it to 110-109 on a layup by Johnson with 14 seconds remaining. Nelson made two free throws for Orlando, then OQuinn cleanly blocked a 3-pointer by Johnson with 10 seconds left. Nelson and Afflalo combined for three free throws to put the game away from there. The Magic led by as many as 16 in the first half and carried an 83-78 lead into the fourth quarter, but had to withstand some sharpshooting by Brooklyn in the second half. The Nets hit 23 of 37 shots (62 per cent) in the final two quarters and got seven 3-pointers and four three-point plays, but it still wasnt enough to overcome Orlando. The Magic kept pace with a hot-shooting second half of their own, making nearly 57 per cent, and got key shots from Afflalo, Moore and Nelson every time Brooklyn got close. The Nets hit six 3-pointers, four by Teletovic, in the third quarter and Deron Williams and Kevin Garnett added three-point plays to help Brooklyn rally from a 55-43 halftime deficit. The Nets tied the game at 78 on a dunk by Plumlee with 35 seconds left, but Victor Oladipo countered with a perimeter jumper and Moore hit his fifth straight 3-pointer at the buzzer to give the Magic an 83-78 lead going into the final period. The teams traded baskets for the first 15 minutes of the game before Moore knocked down four 3-pointers to ignite a 20-3 run that helped Orlando to a 55-43 halftime lead. The reserve guard hit three straight 3s from nearly the exact same spot on the left side of the basket, then crossed to a similar spot on the right side and drained another. In between, he added a fast-break layup for 11 straight points, before being taken out of the game. NOTES: Magic C Nikola Vucevic missed his third straight game with a sore Achilles tendon. The Magic are 3-18 in the 21 games hes missed this season. . The Nets said Pierce had a sore hip and Livingston a sore toe. . The Magic outscored the Nets 22-6 on fast-break points.
