EDM – FG Fleming The Winnipeg Blue Bombers returned to the Grey Cup in 1993 but once again they were foiled by an Alberta club. The Edmonton Eskimos went out in front 21-0 before hanging on to their 11th Grey Cup title. The Blue Bombers cut their deficit to 24-20 in the fourth quarter before yielding to defeat again. Winnipeg miscues in the first quarter led to its downfall. The Eskimos took advantage of a blocked punt, a fumbled kickoff return and an interception within the first 10 minutes of the game. Lucius Floyd scored on a four-yard carry, while Jim Sandusky caught a two-yard pass from Damon Allen. Sean Fleming added a field goal at the end of the quarter. Another Winnipeg fumble in the second quarter, this time on a punt return, put the Eskimos in front by three converted touchdowns following Fleming's 26-yard field goal. The Blue Bombers finally got on the scoreboard late in the first half on Michael Richardson's three-yard run. Both teams exchanged field goals as Edmonton held a 24-10 lead at halftime. Winnipeg made a game of it in the second half, as quarterback Sammy Garza scored on a one-yard keeper. The Blue Bombers closed the gap to four on Troy Westwood's 32-yard field goal in the fourth quarter. But Edmonton's offence got back on track to close out the game. Fleming booted three field goals for a record-tying six for the game. Westwood managed just one other. Winnipeg was still within a touchdown with two minutes and 44 seconds remaining, but Allen put together a 12-play drive leading to Fleming's final field goal.
Edmonton Eskimos centre Rod Connop was the only player that was a part of the team's dynasty years from 1978 to 1982.
