Despite holding the title of defending champion, Montreal is a 7.5-point underdog per FanDuel when they play in the Grey Cup rematch in Winnipeg.
The Montreal Alouettes are ready to defend their Grey Cup title when they take on the Winnipeg Blue Bombers to open the season on Thursday.
"I don't care who put us where, I just care what we do," Alouettes head coach Jason Maas told TSN690 on Wednesday."It just adds more fuel to the fire." The team also added defensive linemen Derek Wiggan and Isaac Adeyemi-Berglund from the Calgary Stampeders to further enhance their defence. The 48-year-old jumped into the roll and immediately had success, going 11-7 last season and surprising the Canadian football world by winning the Grey Cup.
"There was no plan except to come in and work hard every day, compete, and do it with a line mindset where guys play for each other. They're playing for Montreal, Quebec, and the 425, which means they're playing for someone other than themselves every single day."
