Overview:
On Friday, August 26th, at 7:00 P.M. the (4-4) Winnipeg Blue Bombers will be on the road to take on the (3-5) Montreal Alouettes. “The Crowd” projects a final score of Winnipeg 23.2 – Montreal 22.9 with an over/under of 46.2.
Prizing:
1st Place: $50 Amazon gift card
2nd-10th Place: $10 Starbucks gift card
Statistics (9 total teams):
Winnipeg (+13) has the fifth best point differential in the CFL while Montreal (+8) ranks seventh. Winnipeg ranks 6th in points per game (24.9) and tied for 2nd in fewest points allowed (23.3). Montreal ranks 8th in points per game (21.6) and tied for 2nd in fewest points allowed (23.3).
Summary:
Montreal is coming off a 43-19 thrashing of Ottawa whereas Winnipeg enjoyed their bye week. It was a bit surprising to see Montreal explode for 43 points after being one of the lowest scoring teams all season. I’m going to bet against that happening again so I’m taking Winnipeg on the road by a field goal.
