CFL JULY 30 BC @ EDMONTON
Hey Guys,
Just dabbling a bit with CFL before the real season begins. Coming off a 2-0 night with the ALs last night. So far, so good!
This is the second meeting between these two teams in less than 30 days. BC comes into this game at 1-3 and Edmonton is staring at a goose egg 0-4. BC won the first meeting 25-10 but lets look at the numbers a bit closer. The yards were pretty much equal +34 BC. The 1st downs & time of possession both favor Edmonton big time, 26 to 17 and 34:10 vs 25:50, respectively. The key difference that lead to the 15 point loss was the turnovers for Edmonton 3 to 0. Edmonton controlled the game for the most part but the fumbles cost them the game. In this rematch, BC QB Printer who threw for 218 yards is out and back-up QB Lulay should get ther start.
We all know the trends clearly favour BC but I'm going with the desperate home team who should have won the first game imo. I expect a very focused effort from the Eskimos tonight after their owner publicly announced his displeasure with he team's recent performance.
Play Edmonton -1
