Stephen Nover's CFL Thursday Totals Dominator
(CFL) Roughriders (SSK) vs. Alouettes (MTL),
Total: 48.50 | -110.00 Under
Result: Win
Total: 48.50 | -110.00 Under
Result: Win
Two backup quarterbacks in a matchup of the league's two best defenses. That spells Under to me at this large of a number.
Saskatchewan gives up the second fewest points in the CFL and is first in takeaways and run defense. Montreal allows the fewest points in the league and least amount of yards per game.
Montreal QB Cody Fajardo, the Grey Cup MVP last year, suffered a hamstring injury in the Alouettes' last game. That was a loss to Toronto in which Montreal could produce only 18 points. Backup Alouettes QB Caleb Evans threw two interceptions after replacing the injured Fajardo. Evans had thrown only five passes during Montreal's previous five games.
The Alouettes are going to need Evans to play better because of the Roughriders' top-ranked run defense.
Saskatchewan is not only down starting QB Trevor Harris, but also won't have its top rusher, AJ Ouellette. He's out with a hip injury. Ouellette is the third-leading rusher in the CFL.
