SASKATCHEWAN –7½ over Toronto
Three weeks ago the Riders lost in Toronto and what followed that game was the firing of head coach Greg Marshall. In that game played in Toronto, Saskatchewan was down 21-1 going to the fourth and came up just short in the game’s final drive in a close 24-18 final. Also note that the Riders outgained the Argos by 219 yards. They dominated play but every call and every bounce went against them. The Roughriders woke up in the fourth quarter and they haven’t looked back since. They’re coming off back-to-back 20+ point wins over the Blue Bombers. They know they were the better team in Toronto against these Argonauts and they also know they were robbed of a victory by some questionable calls. That all changes here, as the resurgent Riders will show no mercy on the pathetic Argos. Steven Jyles looked lost last week against B.C. in his season debut. The Argos as a whole look lost. Now they’re being asked to travel out west in back-to-back weeks and for a team whose confidence is shot and whose morale is low, this is a daunting task. Losing takes a big toll and Toronto is lucky to have one win in its past nine games and we don’t have to repeat who that win came against. Play: Saskatchewan –7½ (Risking 2.2 units to win 2).
CALGARY –4½ over B.C. Lions
We all saw what Edmonton did to Hamilton on two extra days of rest and those extra rest days should not be ignored. In this tilt, not only are the Stamps at home but they’ve had an extra day to prepare. Also note that while the Lions are on a roll with three straight wins, they came against the Argos the past two weeks and the then reeling Eskimos. Had this game been played before that easy trifecta, the Stamps would be about a 9-point choice here. Calgary has lost the last two home games to the Lions and they also lost their last home game against Edmonton two weeks ago. Expect the Stamps to be completely focused here in order to avoid a third straight loss at home to this intruder and a second straight home loss overall. The Lions are 4-6 on the year and frankly, they’ve yet to record a quality win all season. Aside from the three aforementioned wins, its other win came against the Riders when Saskatchewan couldn’t get out of their own way. Lions have proven nothing this season except that they can beat junk. Play: Calgary –4½ +102 (Risking 2 units)
