I haven't followed the CFL as closely as usual the past couple years, but I am hoping to start again this season and betting on it for the first time. Early predictions from me are a Toronto/Calgary Grey Cup, with the Stamps winning it all. I will probably make a play on them at +230 to win the West and +530 to win the Grey Cup.
I know Saskatchewan just won the Grey Cup, but I was thinking of playing both the Lions at +115 and the Stamps at +230 to win the West, and as long as one of them wins I profit. Any opinions on that? I really can't see the Riders or Edmonton winning the division. The same goes in the East with Toronto and Winnipeg at +115 and +210. These seem like solid bets to me.
Right now I am looking at three win total plays.
Calgary over 9.5 wins -155.
Hamilton over 6.5 wins -110.
BC under 12.5 wins -105.
I also like Montreal under 5.5 wins and Sask. under 10 wins, but probably won't make a play on those.
At this time I'm not as insightful when it comes to the CFL as most of you, so I would love to here thoughts on these plays. I live in Ottawa so I stopped following it as closely as usual when the team left yet again.
Thanks for any thoughts/opinions.
