Statistics (9 total teams):

Toronto is (0-1) after losing 42-20 to Hamilton in week one.  Saskatchewan did not play in week one of the CFL season.  Toronto each finished the 2015 season with a (10-8) record while Saskatchewan was (3-15).  Toronto had a point differential of (-61) whereas SSK was (-133).

Toronto’s offense was 5th in the league in scoring at (24.3) points per game.  They will be up against a SSK defense that ranked last in points allowed per game (31.3).  Saskatchewan’s offense ranked 7th in points per game (23.9).  They will square off with a Toronto defense that ranks 7th in points allowed per game (27.7).

Summary:

This figures to be a high scoring game with two poor defenses facing off against one another.  SSK suffered a miserable 2015 season and figure to be improved this year.  Toronto appears to be the better team on both sides of the ball.  I like Toronto to bounce back and win this one on the road.
