Stephen Nover's CFL Game of the Month
(CFL) Argonauts (TOR) vs. Elks (EDM),
Point Spread: 2.50 | -122.00 Elks (EDM) (Home)
Result: Win
The Toronto Argonauts are 10-7. Edmonton is 6-11. But I fully expect the Elks to beat Toronto.

How's that?

This is the final week of the regular season. Toronto is in the playoffs. Edmonton is not and won't be. The game is meaningless for the Argonauts. Toronto clinched second-place in the East with a 38-31 win against Ottawa last week. It would be foolish for the Argonauts to risk injuries to starters in this game. So I expect many to sit, or play very little.

On the flip side, I expect a big effort from Edmonton. The Elks were idle last week. This is their last game and it comes at home. They have revenge for a three-point road loss to Toronto earlier in the season.

Edmonton has been up-and-down, but the Elks are more than capable. The Elks upset Calgary on the road in their last game. They are a youthful team with many jobs on the line for next year.

Quarterback Tre Ford is one of those Edmonton players auditioning for next season. He's a dual threat and can cause damage, especially against non-starters.
