Here it is, the game of the year to this point! It’s the big battle for first place in the West between the 10-4 Saskatchewan Roughriders and the 9-5 Calgary Stampeders.
The last time these two teams met on July 6th the Stampeders clubbed the Roughriders 37-10. Will the result be much different this time?
Riders will win but no way they cover the 27 point spread. 11-4 Riders, 9-6 Stamps setting up two important games between Winnipeg and Calgary for a home game.
…if the stamps lose there’s little chance they can finish the season first in the west so this game is huge to determine who gets the first round bye and home field for the western final…should be a duesy…
…[\clap] lol, give him a hand folks, he’s here all Friday to entertain you [clap]…isn’t he great?!, awesome stuff…heh heh…but seriously now, stamps mop the field with the riders tonight…I predict TWO picks tonight from Roberson, one of them for six points… ;D
…but truly serious here, this is going to be a night where the D’s have something to prove, all around Charleston Hughes…#39 has got to be pumped to show the horsies they were FOOLS to let him go…and he might be right! he’s a beast right now and this game is only going to dump pure nitromethane direct into his duel superchargers…and the stamps have O line injuries resulting in two green newbies in both tackle positions, so I foresee a potential for CH to get his money’s worth at the BLM all-you-can-sack buffet…BLM better have his magic scramble shoes on tonight…
…and on the R&W defensive side, all the incentive to say, respectfully Mr. Hughes, we are doing just fine without you…let’s us show you how’s it done (smothering a qb)…
Penalties will be key. If the Riders can stay disciplined, then this will be a barn burner. A few stupid offsides and an RTP or illegal contact at an inopportune time, like they’ve been doing of late, and Calgary will make them pay dearly.
