Team Betting Notes
-- Ottawa (2-0) have opened with two impressive road victories. Last week they won a Grey Cup rematch on the road, this week it was a 28-13 dismantling of Montreal (1-1). The RedBlacks are 2-0 SU/ATS, cashing as a one-point favorite in Montreal. Ottawa has won four straight in this series, and they have covered five in a row against the Alouettes dating back to Sept. 26, 2014.
-- The Alouettes are 0-4 SU/ATS in their past four home games dating back to a win and cover against the Blue Bombers Sept. 20, 2015. They'll try to rectify that when Hamilton (1-1) pays a visit Friday.
-- The Tiger-Cats were humbled at home by a 28-3 count, as the BC Lions (2-0) have fired out of the chute. Hamilton is 1-4 SU/ATS over their past five regular season home outings.
-- The Lions are averaging 24.0 points per game on ofense, and allowing just 10.5 points per game allowed on defense. The 'under' has hit in each of their two games, and they have won straight up and covered despite being underdogs in both.
-- Canada Day was very enjoyable if you are a fan of Calgary (1-1) or a side bettors for the Stamps. They rebounded after their road loss in Week 1 to pound Winnipeg (0-2) by a 36-22 count. The game was actually a bit closer than the final score might indicate, too, as the Bombers outscored the Stamps 15-0 in the final quarter.
-- Saskatchewan (0-1) was tripped up at home by Toronto (1-1), as the Roughriders fell 30-17. Saskatchwan is 0-3 SU/1-2 ATS against the Argos dating back to July 26, 2014. Keep that in mind for later in the season when the sides meet again in Toronto Oct. 15.
