The Roughriders offence scored 194 points while the defence allowed 437 points. In May 1979, the Ottawa Rough Riders traded Tom Clements to the Saskatchewan Roughriders. Ron Lancaster became Saskatchewan's head coach but found "the glorious fifties and sixties were over, and he was the first Roughrider coach in sixteen years who did not have Ron Lancaster at quarterback." [3] The Green Riders finished 2–14, including the worst start to a season in club history, going 0-12 before winning their first game.
