Hey Folks.

Last week saw the Alouettes clinch a playoff spot with their win over the Redblacks.  Pickett recovered a fumble and returned it for a score and the defense kept the Redblacks to only field goals in the 2nd half and they won 34-30.  It was a close game but the Als got a much deserved win.

The Ticats beat the Stamps 35-32.  This was the Ticats first win in 18 years in Calgary.  This was a crazy game and one of the most exciting of the season.  The Ticats were up 27-26 with just over 2 minutes left.  They went for it on a 3rd and 1 and were stopped.  The Stamps chewed up clock and eventually had Stevens score a TD with just over a minute left.  They missed on their 2 point attempt.  The Ticats had a huge return and in the end it was Evans throwing a 42 yard pass to White who would catch another for the score with 22 seconds left.  They converted their 2 point play and won they game 35-32.

The Argos rallied and scored 2 TDs in the final minutes to beat the Elks 28-23.  This loss was the Elks CFL record 16th straight home loss.  It’s hard to have any success if you can’t win at home.  They were ahead in this game until there was 27 seconds left.  Just painful.

The Lions won 40-32.  It was a big game for the Lions and their return team.  Terry Williams had a huge game with 341 return yards which was the 3rd highest single game total in CFL history.  The Lions are getting close to a home playoff game.  They have a 2 point lead on the Stamps so if they can win next week against the Elks or the Stamps lose then they will have a home game.

Only 2 weeks left until the playoffs.

 

RedBlacks vs Tiger-Cats Betting Tips

The Ticats need a win.  They have won 3 of their last 4 games and are playing their best football of the season.

If the Ticats can win here they all but guarantee themselves a playoff spot. 

With them at home and so much on the line and with them playing great I like their chances to come away with a win.

Ticats -6

Lions vs Elks Betting Tips

If the Lions can win this game they will lock themselves into 2nd in the West.

The Elks have been bad this season and they are still at home where they have lost a CFL record 16 straight games.

The Lions need to take advantage of the Elks home play and pick up the win to get them into 2nd.

Lions -7

 

Argonauts vs Alouettes Betting Tips

This is a big game.  The Als can still move into first place in the East.  They have 2 games remaining and both are against the team they are chasing.

The Argos know that if they can win either of these games then they have loved down first place.

This game is going to be a fun one to watch and with so much on the line I feel it’s better to skip this game and just enjoy whats sure to be a good one.

Stampeders vs Roughriders Betting Tips

Depending on the Ticats game this game is crucial for the Riders.   If the Ticats win then the Riders will me in a must-win situation to keep their playoff hopes alive.

The Stamps have already clinched a playoff spot but depending on the score of the Lions game they could move past them into 2nd in the West.

This is another game that could go either way.
