North Semi-Final

[edit]

Due to the unbalanced divisional alignment used this season as well as the league's preference to maintain regional rivalries, some North Division teams did not play one another in the regular season, including Calgary and Hamilton. Their 1995 North Division Semi-Final remains the only non-Grey Cup postseason game in the history of professional Canadian football to be played between teams that did not face one another in the regular season.
