Analysis

2% Rotation #773: CFL Saturday 2% Toronto Argonauts +1.5 -122 @ Ottawa Redblacks @ 1 ET - This line is practically a pick'em on the Redblacks even though they are undefeated 5-0 with a tie at home this season and hosting an Argonauts team that is 1-4 on the road this season. This is another contrarian play for me just like BC at Montreal last night. I love fading lines that look completely “off” to the betting markets and this is another such case. The fact is that the Argos are 3-0 SU last 3 times off a loss and their yardage was roughly equal with Hamilton last week whereas Ottawa was outgained by nearly 200 yards by the Lions last week. Also, that trip all the way across the country will not do the Redblacks any favors here as that his a long trip while the Argonauts were here in Ontario. The scheduling situation certainly favors the Argos here and I am going with a small play on Toronto here and grabbing the line with a little extra juice as even a 1-point loss for the Argos would still result in a win at the betting window in that case. Remember the Argonauts are 3 points behind the Redblacks in the standings and they can close that gap to a sinlge point with a win here. Look for them to improve to 4-0 L4 times coming off a loss. 2% TORONTO +1.5 -122
