CALGARY - Calgary Stampeders quarterback Bo Levi Mitchell may be light on CFL playoff experience, but head coach John Hufnagel is confident his starters regular-season form will continue into Sundays West Division final against Edmonton.Mitchell is 15-2 in career starts, including a 12-2 record this season. The 24-year-old from Katy, Texas, was one of three different starters Calgary employed last season. Mitchell beat out Drew Tate in training camp this year to earn the No. 1 designation.But Mitchell hasnt had the opportunity to start a post-season game until now. He came in and completed one of three pass attempts for six yards in last years 35-13 loss in the division final to the Saskatchewan Roughriders.He saw more post-season action in 2012, when he was 6-for-9 in passing for 80 yards and a fourth-quarter touchdown throw in a Grey Cup loss to Toronto. He also scored a touchdown on a one-yard plunge and threw a 42-yard pass in the West final.I dont think the game will be too big for Bo, Hufnagel said Monday at McMahon Stadium. Any time you get playoff experience, it helps. Bo has managed the game every time hes been on the field.He can forget about a bad play and get back on the field and make something good happen. We call it re-loading and he does it very well.Calgary (15-3) and Edmonton (12-6) meet at McMahon in an all-Alberta division final for the first time since 2001, when the Stampeders won 34-16 en route to claiming the Grey Cup. The Stampeders and Eskimos last met in the post-season in the 2011 division semifinal, which the Eskimos won 33-19 at home.Calgary last hoisted the Grey Cup in 2008, while Edmontons most recent appearance and victory in the CFLs championship game was in 2005.Sundays winner advances to the Grey Cup on Nov. 30 in Vancouver to face the victor of the East Division final between Montreal and Hamilton.How Mitchell will fare in his first playoff start is one of the West finals subplots. The mobility of Eskimos counterpart Mike Reilly, who reports say has a broken foot, is another.Edmonton head coach Chris Jones, Hufnagels defensive co-ordinator from 2008 to 2011, has said Reilly will get the ball in Calgary.Reilly didnt play in Edmontons final regular-season game, and he stayed on the sidelines of Sundays 18-10 division semifinal win over Saskatchewan until six minutes into the third quarter.He then completed six of eight passes for 53 yards in relief of starter Matt Nichols.He didnt do much as far as running, Hufnagel observed. Whether that has any factor with his health or whether thats just how the game was, he didnt look any differently to me as far as what he was able to do on the field.I believe hell be the starting quarterback and be Mike Reilly.The Stampeders swept the season series 3-0 with wins of 41-34 on Sept. 6, 28-13 on Sept. 1 and 26-22 on July 24.Its been quite a while since we played them, Reilly told reporters Sunday in Edmonton.Were a different team at this stage of the game and so are they. Theyre still a very good football team, so we definitely need to figure out ways we can attack them. We want to put up more points than 18, thats for sure.Mitchell should have more offensive weapons with the return of receiver Maurice Price and CFL rushing leader Jon Cornish to the lineup. Both men were following concussion protocol when they sat out the regular-season finale.Hufnagel said he was optimistic that defensive end Charleston Hughes, the CFLs defensive player of the year in 2013, would return for the division final after missing seven games with a leg injury.Calgary and Edmonton rank first and second in the CFL in average rushing yards per game at 143.9 and 129.4 respectively. John White led the Esks in rushing with 852 yards to Cornishs league-leading 1,082. White ran for 134 against Saskatchewan on Sunday.The Eskimos and Stampeders are also second and third respectively in defending the rush.I believe the team that has more production on the ground will have more of a chance to succeed, Hufnagel said.I also believe the biggest factor in winning the football game is turnovers. In a playoff game, you just cant give the other team unnecessary opportunities, which a turnover does create for them.Sundays forecast for Calgary is a high of minus-3 with occasional flurries. The Stampeders practised in bitter cold during their bye last week, but the temperature will be more comfortable for their preparation this week.I believe the whole weeks going to be around zero or one or two degrees above, Hufnagel said. Hopefully the sun is shining and I dont think the wind is going to be a factor on Sunday either.It should be a great day for a football game with two very good football teams playing against each other with a lot of similarities with one goal in mind.

Michael Bennett Jersey . -- The road to the Masters got off to a bumpy start Sunday for Tiger Woods when he withdrew from the Honda Classic with what he said was a lower back injury. Michael Bennett Eagles Jersey . George Hill had 13 points and seven rebounds for the Pacers, who stayed atop the overall NBA standings despite losing twice on their West Coast trip. Los Angeles kept it close into the second half before the Pacers finished an easy win over the injury-riddled Lakers, who have lost five straight.BANGKOK, Thailand -- Canadas Milos Raonic is still hoping to improve even as the tennis season draws to a close. Raonic came from a set down to oust defending champion Richard Gasquet 3-6, 7-5, 6-4 on Saturday and reach the final of the Thailand Open. The hard-serving Raonic hit 23 aces and broke Gasquet once in each of the second and third sets, but wants to play even better against top-seeded Tomas Berdych on Sunday. "There are things I must do better for sure tomorrow," said the 22-year-old Raonic. "I competed well but he played better and had more opportunities in the first set." Raonic, from Thornhill, Ont., recovered nicely against Gasquet after dropping the opening set with what he admitted was a less-then-perfect initial effort. The two are familiar opponents -- Gasquet beat Raonic in a tight U.S. Open fourth-round match lasting five sets and more than four and a half hours. Raonic took a 4-3 lead in the final set on Saturday as he saved a break point with his 19th ace and won the game with his 20th. Gasquet answered with a love game before Raonic broke him to earn victory two games later on the second of three match points. "TThe first set was not so much about me losing as it was about him playing well.ddddddddddddHe did a lot to win it and hardly made an unforced error," said Raonic. "But I kept focus on my serve, which I knew was the way I was going to turn things around." Berdych needed nearly three hours to outlast Gilles Simon of France 6-7 (5), 6-2, 7-5. Simon saved four set points in the 10th game of the first set and was down 5-3 in the tiebreaker before winning the next four points, clinching it when Berdych sent a forehand into the net. But Berdych took a 3-0 in the second and broke his opponent in the 11th game of the decider to reach his third final of the year. Raonic knows the challenge he faces in world No. 6 Berdych. "It will certainly be a tough match," said Raonic. "I think it will be about who can control points earlier and who can dictate and control the centre of the court more." If Raonic wins, it will be his fifth career title and second of the season after winning a third trophy at the now-defunct San Jose event. His other title came at Chennai, India, last season. He has 26 wins and 17 losses this season.
