CFL Odds: Calgary seeks second straight win

The Calgary Stampeders made an early statement for the upcoming postseason with last week's 46-21 win at home, so this week they will go on the road looking for the home-and-home series sweep against the Montreal Alouettes. This Week 15 Thanksgiving Day matchup is scheduled for Monday, Oct. 11 at Percival-Molson Memorial Stadium in Montreal with kickoff set for 10 a.m. (PT).

Calgary left little doubt it is currently the best team in the league with a dominating win over Montreal last week. The Stampeders easily covered the three-point spread as the home favorite with the 25-point victory and the total went well ‘over’ the 56 ½-point line. The win moved their record on the year to 10-3 straight-up and 9-4 against the CFL spread. Calgary also maintained its two-point lead over Saskatchewan in the West Division and now has the best record in the league. The Stamps head on the road this week where they are 4-2 both SU and ATS. The total has gone ‘over’ in six of their last seven games.

Montreal has to be reeling a bit after getting blown out by a team it will not only face again this week, but will most likely have to cross paths with again on the road to another Grey Cup championship. The loss dropped the Alouettes to 9-4 SU on the year and 6-7 ATS.

They still lead the East Division by six points with Hamilton and Toronto both losing last week as well. Montreal will try and even the score at home where it is 5-1 SU and 4-2 ATS this season. The total has gone ‘over’ in four of its last seven games.

Stampeders QB Henry Burris picked the perfect time to snap his team out of a two-game slump with a spectacular performance against the Alouettes last Friday night. He finished the night completing 19-of-28 attempts for 412 yards and four TD’s. Romby Bryant had five receptions for 146 yards and two touchdowns and Ken-yon Rambo led the team with six receptions for 169 yards and a score. Calgary was able to build a 27-14 lead at the half that it never relinquished.

Montreal signal caller Anthony Calvillo did not have one of his better nights as he went 17-for-33 and only had 211 yards passing. He did pass for three TD’s but threw a costly interception as well. Wide receiver Jamal Richardson had a productive night with five catches for 124 yards and a TD but it was not nearly enough to keep up with the Stamps’ high powered offensive attack.

The Alouettes did little with the ball on the ground as they were held to under 100 yards rushing. Another concern for Montreal is the health of its kicker Damon Duval who left the game with a leg injury. His status for this game is currently unknown.

Calgary has won six of the last 10 games between these two teams SU and is also 6-4 ATS. The two have split their last four meetings with average margin of victory being 13.4 points. Sportsinteraction.com has opened Montreal as a 3 ½-point CFL betting favorite with the ‘over/under’ line set at 58.

Fortunately for Montreal, Calvillo is extremely resilient and should be able to quickly bounce back from his poor performance last week, especially in front of the home-town crowd. The Alouettes take round two of this heavyweight matchupand cover the 3 ½ points.
