TORONTO — Week 8 offers four matchups of teams within striking distance of one another.
The 5-1 Saskatchewan Roughriders travel to Montreal to face the equally 5-1 Alouettes on Thursday. Both teams sit at the top of their respective divisions, but will be featuring backup quarterbacks as Shea Patterson continues to replace an injured Trevor Harris for Saskatchewan, while Caleb Evans takes over for Cody Fajardo who was recently placed on the six-game injured list.
