Vancouver, BC (Best E Casino) - Paul McCallum's 36-yard field goal with eight seconds left in the fourth quarter pushed the B.C. Lions past Montreal, 36-34, in a Week 5 clash from B.C. Place Stadium.

Jarious Jackson threw for 319 yards, one touchdown and a pair of interceptions on 22-of-41 passing for the Lions, who recovered from an 18-point deficit to record their third consecutive win.

Paris Jackson had five receptions for a game-high 124 yards and a TD. Joe Smith returned from a two-game absence, rushing for 97 yards and a score on 18 carries.

Anthony Calvillo completed 20-of-36 passes for 276 yards, three scores and two picks for the Alouettes, who have lost three in a row.

Avon Cobourne gained 127 yards on 14 carries. Brian Bratton added four receptions for 87 yards and two TD's while Kerry Watkins also had a touchdown catch.

Ian Smart's 91-yard kickoff return on the last play of the third quarter proved to be the momentum-changer, bringing the Lions within four points.

A little more than three minutes into fourth, B.C. took its first lead of the game, 30-27, as Jackson the signal-caller hit Jackson the wideout for a 43- yard strike.

Montreal's Larry Taylor went 82 yards on the kickoff, but the run was negated on a penalty. However, one play later, Calvillo found Bratton wide open over the middle for a 75-yard touchdown pass which gave Montreal a 34-30 advantage.

McCallum hit from 28 yards with 5:18 left in regulation for a one-point game, and the Lions held the Als on consecutive possessions before McCallum drilled the game-winner.

The Lions defense stuffed Calvillo and Adrian McPherson, respectively, on the final two plays of the game.

McCallum hit a 30-yard field goal on the first possession of the game for a 3-0 Lions lead, and the Als countered on their next drive on a one-yard plunge by McPherson.

Montreal tacked on 10 more in the first quarter on Calvillo's eight-yard connection to Watkins, then a Damon Duval single and a 42-yard field goal.

McCallum nailed a 15-yarder with less than two minutes before the half to make it 17-6 and that score stood at intermission.

Montreal took the opening kick in the second half and embarked on a nine-play, 78-yard drive culminating with Bratton's four-yard reception to make it 24-6.

A 39-yarder by McCallum and Joe Smith's one-yard run got the Lions within eight, but Duval answered with a 33-yard make to put the Als ahead 27-16.
