Ottawa over Calgary

7:30 PM EST. Calgary’s stock is high after a win last week over B.C., and the current odds-on favorite out West to make the Grey Cup game, which is reflected in this line, as the Stampeders are road chalk, even if just slightly. That’s a far cry from the underdog status the Stamps have been given in each of their four games prior, with their only time spent as the chalk this season being a Week 1 home date with Hamilton, who is now just 1-5. The Stamps are now 3-3, but where it matters most, at the pay window, they are 5-1 and have covered four straight games, including three tickets cashed against the two teams that played in the Grey Cup last season (Winnipeg & Montreal). The only week the Stamps did not cover the spread was Week 2 vs. B.C., where they failed to do so by just one point.

That game last week in Calgary against the Lions was a closely contested one, as the 25-24 final would indicate, but the big difference in that game was turnovers, which Calgary finished the day +2 on after a pair of B.C. interceptions. That win was nice, no doubt, but there is no rest for the weary Stampeders, as they now must head out on the road on a short week after playing Sunday night. That was just five days ago. Meanwhile, the hometown Redblacks have had a full week of rest after racking up a 20-14 home win over the Elks.

The rest of the Redblacks' body of work looks similar to Calgary in that they have played Winnipeg twice, as well as Montreal and Hamilton. Ottawa is 4-2 both straight up and against the spread, but their last two games came vs. lowly Edmonton and those victories are not carrying much weight in the market. That said, the Elks are better than the goose egg they have in the win column. Furthermore, the Redblacks won and covered last week as a -1-point home favorite and they are playing some pretty good ball. How can they now be an underdog at home to a .500 West division opponent? The short answer is they can’t, and that presents us with some great value and a tremendous opportunity to cash in. We hope to see you at the pay window.
