I've been watching Hamilton for quite some time as I've thought that especially bad teams oftentimes don't cover the spread. I think I've found the perfect game when the Tiger-Cats go to cowtown to face Calgary.
Calgary is favored by only 4 1/2 points!
Is this possibly due to their 4-10 record? I see Calgary romping here at home due to the fact that they've played well lately. Recent games include a win at home over a good Edmonton team, a victory over a good Winnipeg team at home and a close loss to Ottawa on the road.
Come on, Calgary has beaten Winnipeg and Edmonton in their last 2 home games and they're only favored by 4 1/2 over the league's doormat Hamilton??? Add to the fact that the Stampeders have an outside chance of making the playoffs and you have the motivation for doing well here.
My pick:
Calgary -4 1/2 over Hamilton
