2013 CIS football season
Sports season
The 2013 CIS football season began on August 25, 2013, with ten Ontario University Athletics teams playing that day.[ 1] The season concluded on November 23 with the 49th Vanier Cup championship in Quebec City , won by the Laval Rouge et Or after they defeated the Calgary Dinos 25–14.[ 2] [ 3] This year, 27 university teams in Canada played Canadian Interuniversity Sport football , the highest level of amateur Canadian football . The Carleton Ravens football team re-joined the CIS after a 14-year absence, increasing the number of OUA teams to 11 and necessitating the use of bye weeks in that conference.[ 1]
