B.C. has won 5 of the past 7 matchups as teams battle for the 2nd playoff seed in the West
Nathan Rourke and the B.C. Lions will at least have history on their side Saturday night when they visit the Saskatchewan Roughriders.
On Friday night, the Winnipeg Blue Bombers host Toronto and can clinch first in the West Division with a win or tie. Conversely, the Argonauts would cement a post-season berth with a victory or tie. But Saskatchewan has reeled off three straight wins. Last week, veteran Trevor Harris threw for 358 yards with two TDs and two interceptions in a 28-24 decision over Edmonton.
The 2024 season has been a stellar one for Saskatchewan’s Rolan Milligan Jr. He leads the CFL in interceptions and special-teams tackles and is tied for first in knock-downs .Also on Saturday, Edmonton will attempt to sweep its three-game series with Calgary for the first time since 2004. Both teams have been eliminated from playoff contention, the first time in 19 seasons the Stamps won’t make a post-season appearance.
Canadian Tre Ford will start at quarterback for Edmonton. He is 7-9 overall as a starter and 1-2 versus Calgary. Montreal and Ottawa have both clinched playoff berths, with Montreal firmly atop the East Division. Ottawa is currently second but just one point ahead of Toronto.Montreal has won the past seven matchups between the two teams. And while the Alouettes have already locked up first in the East, they haven’t recorded 12-or-more wins in a season since 2010.
