CFL Thursday Smash
(CFL) Blue Bombers (WPG) vs. Redblacks (OTT),
Point Spread: -6.50 | -112.00 Blue Bombers (WPG) (Away)
Result: Loss
T.M. Selection: Winnipeg Blue Bombers - ATS

1) I look for the Redblacks to struggle right out of the gate this season.

2) The Redblacks have quite a few new faces on the team on and they are trying to get everyone on the same page but this is tough when you have not even played a regular season game yet. The fact Ottawa had a bye in Week 1 puts them at a big disadvantage here.

3) When considering the line value here, there was a big move downward from a bigger opening line. We utilize this movement to our advantage by playing against the move and getting a low number in the range of 6.5 points.

4) I expect this game to be a blowout as the Blue Bombers are loaded with talent on both sides of the ball but are off a season-opening home loss which insures proper focus here! This will lead Winnipeg to a road win and I look for it to be by a big margin! Huge value with the -6.5 points!

T.M. Prediction: 30-17 Winnipeg
