The Winnipeg Blue Bombers and the Toronto Argonauts face off tonight at BMO Field. The Blue Bombers come into this game with a road record of 2-1, averaging 26.7 points and allowing 27.7 away from home. The Argos are 1-2 at home, averaging 23.3 points and allowing 29.7 at BMO Field. The Bombers are 2-1 ATS on the road and Toronto is 1-2 ATS at home. I like Winnipeg and the 4 points tonight.
Tonight’s pick:
Winnipeg Blue Bombers +4
The 3-2-0 B.C. Lions travel to the province of Quebec tonight to take on the 2-3-0 Montreal Alouettes. The Lions can cover, going 4-1 ATS in their last 5 overall, and 6-1 ATS in their last 7 road games. On the flip side, Montreal has struggled to cover at home. Over their last 6 at Percival Molson Memorial Stadium, they are just 1-5 ATS and 1-5 ATS in their last 6 games overall against a team with a winning record. The Lion’s offense has been prolific on the road, averaging 36.3 points per game and 450 yards as opposed to the Alouettes home average of 20.3 points per game and 345.50 yards. The spread is -2.5 B.C. and the M/L is low (only -140), so why not take the road favorite and the money line?
Tonight’s pick:
B.C. Lions M/L -140
The 1-2-0 Hamilton Tiger-Cats travel to the province of Quebec tonight to take on the 1-1-0 Montreal Alouettes. Hamilton’s sole victory this year was in Toronto where they beat the Argos 42-20 on June 23rd. The Tiger-Cats are averaging 23 points per game and allowing an average of 25.3. Hamilton’s quarterback, Jeremiah Masoli has thrown for 933 yards with 5 TDs and 4 INTs, and has a 71.3% percentage. On the flip side, Montreal’s only win this year came on the road as well, when they beat Winnipeg 22-14 on June 24th. The Alouettes are averaging 17.5 points per game and allowing an average of 21. Montreal’s quarterback, Kevin Glenn has thrown for 591 yard with 2 TDs, 2 INTs and has a completion percentage of 67.5. Montreal is 2-7 ATS in their last 9 games overall and 0-4 ATS in their last 4 home games. The Tiger-Cats have been covering on the road, going 12-4 ATS in their last 16 games. I like the road favorite Hamilton tonight, -1.5.
Tonight’s pick:
Hamilton Tiger-Cats -1.5
The 1-1-0 Edmonton Eskimos travel to Investors Group Field tonight to take on the 1-2-0 Winnipeg Blue Bombers. Edmonton is averaging 38 points per game but allowing 40.5. Edmonton’s quarterback, Mike Reilly has thrown for 761 yards with 5 TDs and 1 INT, and has a 71.4% completion rate. Edmonton is 5-1 ATS in their last 6 meetings against the Bombers but are 2-5 ATS in their last 7 in Winnipeg. The Blue Bombers are averaging 21.3 points per game and holding teams to 27.3. The Bomber’s Drew Willy has been impressive, racking up 940 yards with 4 TDs, 1 INT and has a 74% completion rate. Winnipeg is 1-4 ATS in their last 5 overall but they are 4-1 ATS in their last 5 against the West. I’m siding with the home dog, +4 points.
Tonight’s pick:
Winnipeg Blue Bombers +4
The Toronto Argonauts will look for their first win tonight at their new home, BMO Field, when they host the Ottawa RedBlacks. Ottawa is 2-0-1 on this season, with their 2 wins coming on the road. The RedBlacks are 5-0 ATS in their last 5 road games and 4-0 ATS in their last 4 against the East. The Argonauts are 2-1-0 on the season. They are 7-19 ATS in their last 26 home games and 4-11 ATS in their last 15 against the East. Ottawa’s Trevor Harris can light it up. He has already thrown for 1,083 yards with 9 TDs, 1 INT and has an 80% completion rate. Toronto’s Ricky Ray has thrown for 751 yards with 5 TDs, 1 INT and has a 68.9% completion rate. Ottawa has the edge in points per game, yards gained, and time of possession. This game is a pick ’em and I’m siding with the road team here.
Tonight’s pick:
Ottawa RedBlacks
Hamilton’s got injuries so Winnipeg should deliver.
Today’s pick:
Winnipeg Blue Bombers
If you’re interested in CFL today, Toronto’s star quarterback Ricky Ray is out against the Edmonton Eskimos.
