Bo Levi Mitchell finally has his first win over the Calgary Stampeders.
Mitchell threw for 450 yards and five touchdowns to lead Hamilton past Calgary 42-20 on Friday night. Mitchell, 34, spent his first 10 CFL seasons with the Stampeders before joining the Tiger-Cats in 2023.
Hamilton faced Calgary once last season with Mitchell on the injured list. He returned to McMahon Stadium on June 7, passing for 300 yards with a TD and an interception in a season-opening 32-24 loss.
“It feels good, it’s something I’ve wanted to do since I left there,” Mitchell said. “It’s not something that I have a vengeance against those guys but it’s your old team.
“I’d be lying if I didn’t tell you I wanted to go out there and just beat the brakes off of them because I did . . . it felt good to go out there and do it and just put that to bed.”
Mitchell wasn’t alone. Cornerback Jonathan Moxey, defensive back Richard Leonard and running back Ante Litre are also former Stampeders.
Moxey’s first-quarter interception ended Calgary’s impressive opening drive. It also set up Mitchell’s eight-yard TD pass to Tim White at 9:30 as Hamilton quickly surged into a 30-0 first-half advantage.
“I didn’t expect to be able to jump on them that quickly,” said Hamilton head coach Scott Milanovich. “Obviously the interception was, I thought, critical because they had some momentum, they were moving on the first drive.”
