Texas State -106 over Arizona State

Bobcat Stadium - San Marcos, TX

B.C. -4½ over Toronto

10:00 PM EST. Count this as another CFL line that is just out of whack, whether it be a lack of focus with both the NCAAF and NFL back in full swing or those setting the lines are just not watching these games. How can the Lions, in their current form, be a similar price at home today as they were in Week 1 at Toronto?

The Argonauts certainly aren’t a better team today than they were in Week 1 after losing two straight games, which easily could have been three in a row if not for a 20-19 win over Saskatchewan in Week 12 on a sad, game-winning one-point single on a missed field goal as time expired. In Week 13, the Boatmen dropped a 31-28 Labour Day decision in Hamilton and followed that with a blowout loss last week in Ottawa, 41-27.

This will be the fifth game back for Nathan Rourke under center for the Lions, and while there have been some struggles, he did throw for 304 yards last week, and B.C. beat Montreal 37-23 despite Rourke’s 3 INTs. It’s impressive that the Lions lost the turnover battle 4-2 and still won that game by double digits. That was the second game in a row that Rourke threw for over 300 yards, as he and the Lions pasted the Redblacks in Week 13, 38-12. B.C. was a -6-point favorite in that game vs. Ottawa, and now they are spotting a smaller pile of points just a week later against the Argos, who are worse than the Redblacks. How can that be? If the Boatmen keep pace here, so be it, but the Lions are spotting severely deflated points.
