BC easily dispatched the visiting Riders 30-15 on the weekend in a game that was far more lopsided than the score indicates. Midway through the 4th quarter, the Lions actually led 30-0 and were in total cruise control having replaced a number of their starters. In the four games played between these two teams since Chris Jones was named head coach of the Riders last year, the Lions are a perfect 4-0 including a pair of wins in Regina by scores of 40-27 and 24-6. Although the Riders figure to respond with an improved effort on Sunday and are 2-1 at home this season, it's important to note that their wins have come against Hamilton and Toronto, neither of which are of the same caliber as the Lions. The line opened with BC -2 1/2 but early betting has seen that number drop to 1 or even pick 'em at a couple places offshore.
