Thanks to the ever so interesting way that the CFL makes a schedule, we only have three games this week, and three teams off on bye. It's also very disappointing to see that the CFL didn't schedule a RedBlacks/Alouettes game on this rivalry weekend either.
1) Winnipeg @ Saskatchewan
The Labour Day classic usually lives up to that moniker between these two teams, and this one should be no different. The only issue is that the Blue Bombers are missing their two biggest starters, QB Matt Nichols, and RB Andrew Harris. That being said, the Bombers have impressive depth and lots of heart. It will be a close game, but the Bombers should come out on top.
PICK: Blue Bombers
2) Toronto @ Hamilton
Beat down anyone?
PICK: Tiger-Cats
3) Edmonton @ Calgary
This is a tough one to call. Both teams aren't very consistent this year, and their defences haven't been really effective. Calgary has been completely beatable at home this year, while Edmonton has struggled with rhythm and red zone production. After getting taken to overtime and losing last week, I think Calgary might just squeak past the Eskimos here.
PICK: Stampeders
BYE: B.C., Montreal, Ottawa
LAST WEEK: 4-0
SEASON: 32-11
