Saskatchewan Roughriders vs. Hamilton Tiger-Cats
Hamilton is the slight 1-point favorite in this game at Sportsbook with a total of 53.5. Saskatchewan is pretty comfortable making the playoffs in the West while Hamilton is tied with Toronto with 12 points in the East. Both teams are coming off a win, but Hamilton has given up more points that they have scored this season. Hamilton has to play good D against Roughriders’ QB Darian Durant, who leads the CFL in passing yards this season. The Hamilton secondary is key, as even though Durant leads the CFL in passing yards he also leads in INTs’
British Columbia Lions vs. Calgary Stampeders
Sportsbook has Calgary as big 10.5-point favorites in this game with a total of 55.
BC is eight points behind Saskatchewan in the West and to move up in the conference they will have to beat Calgary at home, which no team has been able to do this season. Calgary is not only undefeated at home, but they have scored the most points and given up the fewest points in the league. The key in this game is the defense of the Lions, as they have to contain the dynamic Calgary offense led by QB Henry Burris, who ranks second in the league in passing yards and first in TD’s by a wide margin.
Edmonton Eskimos vs. Toronto Argonauts
In this game Sportsbook has Toronto as 3-point favorites with a total of 49.5.
Toronto finally snapped their losing streak and they have a good chance to win their second game in a row against an Edmonton team that has the fewest points in the league and has scored the fewest and given up the most points in the league this season. Edmonton has lost three straight and they have yet to win on the road this season.
