I gotta think Edmonton wins it all given the way they've been playing. Calgary has a history of choking in the cold games.

I'm going with Edmonton vs Montreal in the final.  The Eskies look really good right now and Montreal is the best in the East.

 

Edmonton 31  Montreal 27

Cal vs Sask in final. Cals had their name on the trophy since the beginning of the year.

Will probably revise this after next week, cuz a few things could change but Calgary vs Montreal right now. 

Edm vs Mon

Just for fun I'll go...

 

Edmonton 28 Hamilton 20

 

MVP Mike Reilly

MOC Hugh O'Neill (mostly beard-related)

Eskies/Als is the way I see it going too!

BC (Cross Over) vs Edmonton with an Edmonton win.

Calgry over Hamilton

Durant will battle through injury and heroically lead the Riders to the Cup b/c **** my life as a Bomber fan.

Edmonton over Montreal 

Its gonna be a dogfight between Edmonton and Hamilton in a low scoring game dominated by scrambling quarterbacks and carnivorous D-lines. If it comes down to talent, the Esks have an edge but the difference could well be the coaching, and Austin gives the 'Cats a big edge there. 20-17 either way.

I don't see the Riders winning anything in Montreal.  That place is a death trap for them.

Same thing with BC, they never win in Montreal

"Heh heh heh, I'm not going to come out and say who called it…but he's right here, right now and in the know….(PS, Willy couldn't have played like that)

 

 

This is my prediction for a future post if his Grey Cup prediction comes true.  :)

 

 

Personally would like to see Hamilton and Edmonton. The Ti-Cat fans that came out last year to Regina were great.

So here it is, Semi Final week.  My prediction for these two games:

 

Montreal 45 BC 13

 

Edmonton 31 Saskatchewan 10

BC 35 -- MTL 25

 

EDM  25 -- SK 19

Semi Finals

BC 23 Mtl 19

Ssk 28 Edm 24

Finals

Ssk 31 Cgy 27

BC 36 Ham 15

Grey Cup

BC 27 Ssk 17

Semi Finals

BC 17 Montreal 14

Sask 24 Edmonton 17 

 

Division Finals

Calgary 31 Sask 24

Hamilton 28 BC 14

 

Grey Cup  

Calgary 28 Hamilton 21

SEMI-FINALS

 

Glenn vs. Crompton.  Nichols vs. Joseph.  All outdoor games with some great defences.  I don't think we're going to see a lot of points scored this weekend. 

 

BC 18 Montreal 14

Edmonton 21 Saskatchewan 11

 

FINALS

 

Huge questions out West: is Cornish available?  Is Reilly?  My brain says Calgary takes it, but my heart says Edmonton benefits from Calgary's annual choke job.

 

BC 24 Hamilton 17 (OT)

Edmonton 28 Calgary 27

 

GREY CUP

 

Edmonton 14 B.C. 10

This weekend, we've got 3 teams starting their backup QB's and one who's starting a QB with less than half a year's starting experience.  Low scoring affairs IMHO.

 

BC over Montreal - Glenn's the best backup QB in the league.  Been there.  Done that.  Montreal's wins have mostly come against the eastern teams.

Edmonton over Regina - Reilly out will make a huge difference so this one will likely be close, but Edmonton's a better team overall and if they can stop the run, they'll be off to Calgary next week.

BC going to Montreal playing a 1:00 eastern time game. Going to play a big part. Look how bad eastern teams struggle playing night games in BC.

This is a good point, and why I would not be surprised at all if Montreal beats them bad. It could be a very similar score to their week #2 matchup.  I'll go MTL 24, BC 15.

 

In the West, EDM 20, SSK 14.

BC hasn't done too well in Montreal recently, think that trend continues plus it's not supposed to be that nice out there in Montreal and Glenn struggles when the weather is a little chilly

 

Montreal 20 BC 10

 

Looks like Reilly is out, Durant is out too probably... Probably be chilly in Edmonton also, probably favors the run game so as much as i hate saying this

 

SASK 27 EDM 16

 

Montreal then travels to Hamilton and exacts revenge for the last regular season loss they had

 

17-14

 

Sask Travels to Calgary where i think Calgary makes a statement

 

Calgary 40 Sask 17

 

Calgary Montreal Grey Cup

 

Calgary wins 38-20
