With the 38-point win, No. 9 ranked Queen's improved their record to 2-2.

The game was tight through the first quarter, with the two teams opening the game by trading field goals before Alex Vreeken gave Queen's the edge with the first of three touchdown passes to Nathan Falconi. Queen's then started pulling ahead in the second quarter, outscoring the Varsity Blues 7-3 to take a two-score lead into half time, before completely running away with the game in the second half.
