I would love to see an All western Grey Cup but I just dont see it happening for two reasons:

1. Body Clock on edmonton early game tomorrow for the Eskies vs a team that Starts fast (montreal) means Edmonton is playing from behind all game.

2. Although the line is set -6 Montreal the ML is -440. That is way off -6 in football usually means -220 to -240.

Looks like the books are pretty confident in Montreal winning.

BC vs CGY:


Not only has CGY beaten BC in all 3 games this year they have covered in all 3 games as BC has been the dreaded -3 Favourite ( see jets-ne last night to see what i mean )

Tomorrow they are +6 dogs...... WTF I had to go back to 2001 to find a game when Calgary was favoured this much over BC.

now we have Buono vs Huffnagel - in Playoff coaching experience where do you lean.

I think this game comes down to 2 players - Cam Wake vs Henry Burris, if the BC front 4 gets pressure on Burris (like they have this year 9 sacks) then Smiling hank will throw some INT's.

Wake will most surely pick up a double team for most of the game that leaves Brent Johnson on the other end or Arron Hunt up the Middle in one on ones to exert the pressure. BC's defense has been ball hawking all season and this how they win games. Sacks and INT's -when they win the TO battle they are 10-1 SU this year

If I was Calgary I would keep the ball on the ground with Joffery Reynolds and limit BC's Pass rush and expose their weak Linebacking crew. They probably wont do that though b/c this is a pass first league and Huffnagel is an EX QB and playoff rookie he will make some mistakes. Don't get me worng I think he has done a fantastic job this year but he his team will be exposed tomorrow.

TREND OF THE GAME:

Buono is 18-4 ATS (+13.6 Units) as a road underdog as the coach of BRITISH COLUMBIA.
The average score was BRITISH COLUMBIA 32.5, OPPONENT 27.0 - (Rating = 4*)

Lions will win outright grab the points and grab some ML when they get around to posting it

GL this weekend but BC is not winning outright. They couldnt even beat them with Oneal at QB. Burris is unstoppoable this game wont even be close. Save your money you obviously havent watched BC this year thos stats that date back years are from when they dominated. They are not half as good as they were in years past.

I have to agree here. I have watched every CFL game all season and can assure you that Burris wont be throwing up ducks like Bishop did last week. BC forced 4 turovers in the 1st quarter and still were only up by like 4 points. That wont work against the Stamps. Calgary has a very under rated defense to boot. Sask is horrible dont let that win over them fool you. BC lost all 3 times to CGY this season to them and games were pretty much dominated by the Stamps. Also dont know how stats from years past when BC was actually good have any bearing on this season where they are mediocre to say the least?

On another note you say MTL ML is -440? What where do you see that everywhere I look it is between 250-300???

Thanks for the input guys:


Leafsfan - I was reading my Si line feed they were showing the greek at -440 - but i went and checked my greek account and they did not have ML for the game my error.

Skatesharpener - Imo the game in cgy win week 19 - BC was determined to win but not at the cost of injury or exposing the play book they knwe they would have to play CGY again in two weeks. Yes a home playoff date would have been nice but their record at home in the PO's not so good especially vs Sask.

Also just a note I live in vancouver I get the benefit of local news and press coverage, as well as watching the team live .


Thanks again for your input - Looking forward to your post on the game you to Leafs fan.

You talk so much about Buono and I always find this argument funny in all sports about coaching. Sure it has a bearing but when it comes down to it the players on the field determine what happens. Regardless of Buono coaching against a rookie playoff coach in Hufnagel it doesnt matter when Calgary is the much much better team here. I dont know how you personally cap sports games but what I do know is that I never bet on streaks to end. You say Calgary will get exposed how can you confidently say such a blatent comment like that when infact BC was the team that got exposed in ALL 3 MEETINGS AND EVEN WITH ONEAL AT QB NOT BURRIS!?!? I am pretty sure you live in BC and are Lions fan so that may account for the homerism oozing from your post but seriously have you watched BC this year. This is not the Lions team they once were. There defense has given up more points this season than in how many years?? How many games did they lose this year as opposed to previous seasons?? No offense at all I respect your opnion just think its a little off...GL!

Look Leafs fan I already thanked you for your input and asked for your pick. I have noticed this before that you like to counter posters and tell them they are wrong and there is nothing wrong with a little dialouge I am just saying you need to post a few plays if you want to be taken seriously.

You are now asking me to compare previous years results to this years team when in your post before you state you are unsure how stats from previous years have any bearing. So there is no point in referencing them & your double speak is a bit confusing here.

If you have some points to make other being argumentative as to why you think I should lay Six points on Calgary - other than they have beaten BC 3X this year I am willing to listen.

Calgary defense Bends but does not break....

Leafs fan never came back to give us pick....

My team loses but I win......

Henry Burris beats havy Glatt to the hole to score the winning touch down......


Leaf Fan the fact that you pounced on my original post and then never came back with a pick (you had 2 days to do so) that I asked for twice makes you a pussy. Stay out of my threads in the future you POS
