It seems to me that BC has as good a chance of coming out of the Eastern playoffs as either Hamilton or Montreal

 

Has the CFL arranged for the host city to play in the Grey Cup again, LOL?

 

If true then the Blue are a shoe-in for the Grey Cup next year !!! LOL LOL LOL

 

Does this mean we're signing Ben Heenan and trading EJ Kuale & Mike Renaud for Ricky Ray?

I'm getting moist and tingly again......

Only if Braley buys the team between now and then. 

I agree that BC has as good a chance as Ham or Mtl of representing the East... but not as favourable as it looked early in the year... I think BC beats Mtl but then loses to Hamilton...

B.C. biggest advantage is that they have a vet QB. Here come the Glenn haters.

No way does Kevin Glenn go into Hamilton and win the East Final assuming they beat Montreal(which by no means is any sort of guarantee).

Hamilton has become a tough team to beat at home the second half of the year. It will take a big effort for either Montreal or BC to knock them off.

History is against the Lions winning the East. There has never been a cross-over team in the GC. Then again, the Argos are the first 8 win team to miss the playoffs in at least 20 years so who knows. As of today, the forecast for Montreal says a high of 3C and snow. 

If Hamilton does get to the Grey Cup, Kent Austin is due some respect for his coaching abilities.  This happens too often to be considered coincidental.

If BC does not advance to the Eastern final, and maybe even if they do, there will be changes in BC.

Do they still play playoff games in The Big O?.... Better question... does that stadium still exist?

How healthy is BC going into Montreal?

 

Which starters will be missing besides Harris?

 

Could Lulay play?

Even if he is healthy I don't think you can go to Lulay in the playoffs when he hasn't played more than a couple games this season. That's just setting the team up to fail. Glenn got them there, he's the man to lead them in the game for good or bad.

Sure.. Logic dipicts this but do you truly believe this is how it would play out? Lulay healthy, he plays imo. Glenn off the pine when Lulay faulters due to rust or reinjury but i really cant imagine Glenn plays unless he has to..

Glenn starts regardless of Lulay's health. Now, if Glenn is struggling and Lulay is healthy then you might try to bring in Lulay off the bench. 

A healthy Lulay could be an effective threat especially to Glenn

The Als last home playoff game was in 2012 and it was played at Olympic Stadium. This is the first time they've played a playoff game at Percival Molson that I can remember. And yes the Big Owe still exists.

BC matches up well against Montreal at QB ... the tipping factor is that BC's defense is much better than the Al's D

Yup. the edge goes to BC in quarterbacking and defence. Crompton ought to be in a full body cast by the end of the game.
