The Edmonton Elks will not participate in the CFL playoffs. However, they finished their season in CFL style.

The Elks finished 7-11 with a 31-30 overtime win over the playoff-bound Toronto Argonauts on Friday.

How to win a match with a one point lead in overtime? With the CFL specialty, a red.

The Argonauts closed with a rush and tied the game to end the fourth quarter with a late field goal.

They missed a field goal in overtime, opening the way for Edmonton.

The Elks could have attempted a field goal to win the game. The announcer commented that a field goal attempt would have been about seven yards closer than the punt.

However, Jake Julien, who previously tried out for the New England Patriots, successfully completed the kick in the back of the end zone and there was joy in Edmonton.
