Playoff Predictions

East:

 

It doesn't matter who wins today...Ray and the Argos will win next Sunday

 

Argos win the East

 

West:
 

The Riders should win today, but my gut says B.C.  Sheets has played well against B.C. but with Lulay back Lions > Riders.  Durant does not play well in the playoffs.

 

It's hard to predict next weekend. Calgary has a good all around team, but this will come down to how well Glenn plays

 

Call me crazy...but BC wins the West

 

Grey Cup

 

Argos.  Even if it's vs. Calgary, I think Toronto wins it again.  Ray is the best QB in the playoffs, and he has played well in bad weather.

  • Riders & Ticats with Austin & Burris spoiling the Rider parade.

  • it's a dangerous thing.

I see Hamilton winning the EF, in a squeaker, but only because the game is indoors so Burris will actually try, and put in a decent effort.  Without McCune, and Burris having his head in the game, the Ti-Cat offense can be lethal, so it really will about the Ti-Cats being able to stop Ricky Ray.  Same can't be said for Burris' fellow fair-weather QB, Kevin Glenn.  According to Google, it's -16C in Calgary at the moment, which means that KG is going to give it his usual half-hearted try for a few series and then pack it in.  If I was Huffer, I'd have Mr. Fairweather on a short lease, and have BLM and Nutjob ready to go ASAP.  If they stick with Glenn, then the game is already over.

 

So I am calling - Hamilton/Sask GC, and Sask victory, as Burris just gives up trying to do anything in the -20C wind chill by half time.  If this GC had been indoors, then I'd have picked Hamilton to win it.

1 for 1 so far.  Now let's see if Kevie does his usual choke and the Riders walk in to the GC....

So far, the Calgary defence's collars look tight....

Rider fans, Canada's Team. Durant, Sheets, Home field advantage, weather.......All ******* week. <groan>

it's disgusting but I'm not sure it's enough to make me get over my massive hatred of Henry Burris and actually cheer for the ticats.... Wasted Grey Cup here.

Have a feeling Burris and Fantuz will be on a mission, Sask. had it too easy this week.  The Ticats win, I think. 

 

On a side note, KEEP KEVINN GLEN AWAY FROM US PLS.

Tip of the hat to Argo fans. Didnt see any BS in stands or outside. Had a quiet pint at Bidali's with a bunch of classy Argo fans. Kudos.

I don't know who I'll cheer for. I've come across too many obnoxious Ticat fans at various message forums (not Zontar) to cheer for them but if the Riders win Rider Nation will be unbearable.

Wouldn't it be funny if it were Hamilton and Saskatchewan and somehow Burris wins in Regina making the rider fans explode lol

Oh please let this come true

first half: on our way to the comprehensive victory i had predicted.

 

second half: didn't even score... don't deserve to go to the GC

 

had a (very) bad run in with a drunken A-hole from Hamilton (and his pig wife)... other than that, kudos to the TiCat faithful.

Want nothing more than for the Riders to be heroically embarrassed in front of their heavy mouth breathing moron "fans", but unfortunately, Burris is the ultimate fair-weather QB. He's gonna go 5/30 next week in the cold. Undeserved cake-walk for the Riders...

I really can't stand Kent Austin and Henry Burris, but I also can't stand Rider Fans.

 

This is a no win situation.

So much for predictions...first place teams basically rolled over and died after halftime.

Clearly it was the week off that doomed them. B)

Two for two.  Now let's watch Hank tank in the cold and I'll be 3 for 3.

Congrats KBF on your picks.

Me, I'm at a firm, clear indecision on who I want to win.

Might have to consult the Magic 8 Ball.

How many regulars were CAL missing yesterday, anyone ?

How many regulars were CAL missing yesterday, anyone ?

 

3 at least. Micah Johnson, Demonte Bolden and Marquay McDaniel.

they were missing their Rider killer though Nik Lewis.

The stamps seemed to be missing a lot on their d-line, just could not stop sheets enough to give them a chance. Then when you get guys that keep fumbling the football it's not going to be a good day for you.

LOL, hats off to your defensive scheme in the second half...clearly had Ray confused

Glenn choked but so did his receivers. Stamps had opportunities to win this game...they can't ask for much more than that.

He had five less yards than Durant at half time. Even if they get field goals if they don't fumble its a really close game at halftime.

Glenn was great and completely let down by his teammates. They coulda been up by a bunch in the first half, if not for the fumbles after completion.
