Montreal at Saskatchewan
A battle of unbeaten teams on the prairie. The Riders tend to well at Taylor Field and Montreal is also more of a home team than road warriors. Montreal has the better offense and Saskatchewan the better defence. How this games turns depends on the amount of pressure the Riders can put on Anthony Calvillo. Riders defensive end Stevie Baggs has had a great season so far and should be a force at home. The Riders seem to find weird ways to win, so being at home to boot I'm picking the Riders, even if Montreal is the better team.

Winnipeg at Hamilton
Hamilton seems to be a one point favourite (when did that last happen?), so things are tight. Both Hamilton and Winnipeg looked good last week. Porter has a lot better completion percentage 70.3% versus 46.6 (smelly and almost Kerry Joseph like) for LeFors. If Cobb can play as well as he did last week for Hamilton in the backfield, the Cats have the upper hand. Despite their terrible record over the past few years, the Cats have won a large proportion of their wins at Ivor Wynne. Cats in close game.
